On February 4, 2014, the Miami University Colony of Theta Tau hosted companies for a reception after Spring ICE. The professional development committee emailed the engineering companies that attended the career fair to invite them to the reception, with companies Marathon and Avery Dennison attending. Unfortunately, due to inclement weather many companies were unable to attend.
Overall the event was a success, with two brothers even earning summer internships from it. Everyone agreed that it was a great networking opportunity and that is was a great practice on how to interact with businesses in a less formal setting. Another suggestion for the event is to have it at a bar uptown instead of at the Shriver Student Center. Everyone would love to continue this event and looks forward to it growing in the future.
