Adjacencies : Determining how to Create a Collective through Program  

1. What does a program provide? 

2. What ELSE can a program provide? 

3. How can we start to see program uncategorically? 

4. What and where are the realms of intersection between public, private, wifi, and warmth?

Make a Difference With The Student Senate

Have you ever felt the need to make a difference on campus? You can - just like the ambitious students who joined the Student Senate.

“The Student Senate has given me the opportunity to give back and help the campus and community reach their full potentials, while simultaneously helping me reach MY full potential.”

That’s according to senate member Michael Tadros ‘17. He pointed out some of the major accomplishments and events created by the senate that our student body enjoys throughout the semester, such as Casino Night, Commuter Brunches, and weekly events like Monday Night Football.

“The Senate has allowed me to become an active member of the community.” 

But being part of the student senate isn’t just about creating fun events for students to unwind temporarily. It’s also about listening to the voice of your academic peers and helping improve the campus as a whole.

For example, Tadros says that the Student Senate was responsible for passing a “Smoke Free Campus Resolution”, and doubling the time between classes from 5 minutes to 10 minutes for the Spring ‘18 semester and beyond.

In terms of visual changes to the campus, the senate set forth renovations to the Campus Center’s 2nd floor, including new carpet and furniture.

Undoubtedly these accomplishments have an impact on NJIT, but potentially also on the senate members’ careers moving forward.

“The leadership skills that I have learned and the strong connections with other students and faculty have helped me become a better person as a whole.”

If you want to help bring change to your campus, while serving the NJIT student body, perhaps consider joining the Student Senate.

According to Tadros, you can “become a Student-At-Large, which is a volunteer position for the committee of your choosing. This is a great way to not only get involved on the Senate and on-campus, but also a great way to get exposed to how the Senate functions.”

More info can be found at StudentSenate.NJIT.edu or visiting their office on the 4th floor of the Campus Center, between 10am and 5:30pm on Monday thru Friday.

Alpha Kappa Psi visits Bloomberg HQ

In November, the members of Alpha Kappa Psi got to delve into the world of big business by visiting Bloomberg Media headquarters in New York City. 

While there, they were able to tour the facility and meet Bloomberg staff, along with former Highlanders who paved the way for future business-savvy minds at NJIT.

Below is a write-up by Mansha Kohli ‘20, the president of Alpha Kappa Psi:

Alpha Kappa Psi, NJIT's co-ed professional business fraternity, embarked on a corporate tour at Bloomberg L.P. headquarters in Manhattan on Monday, November 13. Fraternity members met several senior executives and alumni employees while learning about Bloomberg's history and culture.

During the tour, the group met Tom Keene and John Tucker, anchors on Bloomberg Radio's weekday morning program, "Bloomberg Surveillance." The program covers the latest news in finance, economics, and investment and invites influential individuals to speak on the world markets.

Next, the students received an in-depth tour of media facilities, including the broadcast studio, hosted by Roman Mackiewicz, CIO of Bloomberg Media Group. Roman is a graduate of NJIT, receiving both his undergraduate and masters degrees in Computer Science from the university.

After the tour concluded, fraternity members had the chance to unwind during lunch at Patsy's Pizzeria, courtesy of the chapter's co-advisor, Michael Smullen, Director of Alumni Relations. There, the students met and ate with NJIT alumnus Anthony Scotellaro '07, Desktop Engineer at Bloomberg.

NJIT's sponsorship of the “Bloomberg NJIT STEM Report” on Bloomberg Radio is now in its fifth year, and the partnership has recently been renewed. The Brothers of Alpha Kappa Psi are very excited to see what the future holds, and would like to thank Donna Russo, Michael Smullen, and the Martin Tuchman School of Management for making this event possible!
