Student Life

At Whitman, we recognize that the intense academic experience our MBA students undertake during the two-year program must be balanced with a positive social environment. With the student in mind, Whitman’s new state-of-the-art, 160,000-square-foot facility was built to cater to students’ academic and social needs. The building boasts technology-filled team rooms, computer labs and lounges, comfortable study areas, and wireless Internet throughout. Whitman's Olsten Cafe gives MBA students the opportunity to enjoy a meal, socialize with each other, and catch up on the news.

MBA Clubs and Organizations
Whitman’s Office of MBA and MS Programs in coordination with the MBA Student Association make tremendous efforts to provide students the opportunity to engage socially with each other and Whitman faculty and staff. The Whitman Spring Formal, International Day, multiple MBA socials, and spirited student vs. faculty softball games are just some of the ways Whitman MBAs have fun.

MBA Sports Activities
Whitman MBA students also team up with other colleges and schools on the SU campus for friendly but competitive games of kickball and dodgeball or for other social events. These give students a chance to meet fellow graduate students in other disciplines around campus.

MBA Clubs and Organizations
Whitman is also home to 15 student clubs and organizations, providing MBA students ample opportunity to learn more about a specific industry and network with business professionals in informal settings.
