San Diego

Hey Everyone,
I just wanted to fill you in on what you can expect in terms of weather out in San Diego. Today is January 15th and it was 75 degrees and sunny. Yesterday was....well 75 degrees and sunny. I have a sneaking suspicion that tomorrow will be, you guessed it, 75ish and sunny.

I just moved here from the Great White North and heard that tomorrow is supposed to be -10 degrees with a high POP of snow back home. I can definitely get used to the beach and the sun. It makes getting up for early class a lot more enjoyable.

As mentioned before, if anyone out there has any questions, the SMBA cohort 2010 will be more than happy to answer.

Talk Soon,
Eric

2 days down ... 363 (or so) to go!

Welcome to SDSU's fifth Sports Business Management MBA class!

We've just this week kicked off orientation, and, from where I sit (somewhere in the CES building, room 210 ...), so far, so very good!

Yesterday we met for the first time, took care of a fair bit of administrivia, and broke the ice, as it were. Today we had the chance to chat with some of the faculty, alumni, and Aztec staff (thanks to Drs. Lackritz and Belch, Chris Carlson of Aztec and Athletics, and alums Jill Stephenson, Mike Kitts and Brent LeVasseur, and SMBA IV students Leah Glasgow and Dave Stark for taking time out to talk to us!), and got our glamour shots taken.

Outside of class, we've been getting to know one another: Grabbing a drink or a burger here and there, doing some bowling, and catching movies. And, of course, taking care of the ever-exciting life admin that comes with moving (for most of us) to a new town. If we're on top of it, we're also digging in to our first reading and class assignments. Back to school time!

As we get settled in, and throughout the year (and hopefully into our internships), we'd like to keep anyone checking in out there up-to-date, in an informal way, on what we're up to out here in sunny San Diego. So say 'hi', drop us a line, let us know if you have any questions, or what you might be interested in hearing more about.

Oh, and if you're a prospective student, and would like some info, or just to chat with a current student, leave a comment for us here, and one (or a couple) of us will get back with you within a couple of days.

Go Aztecs!
