"Outside
of the classroom, leadership opportunities
abound through the very active Kellogg
Part-Time Student Association (KPTSA)
and the associated cultural and professional
clubs. I had the opportunity to serve
as president of the KPTSA, working with
a remarkable team of fellow students to
oversee all the student run operations
of Kellogg."

The
Kellogg Part-Time Student Association (KPTSA)
One of the key attributes of any MBA program is the
network participants establish and maintain throughout
their careers. The Kellogg School is dedicated to
providing part-time MBA students with the same supplementary
MBA experiences in which full-time students participate.
The Kellogg Part-Time Student Association (KPTSA)
is a student-elected board that serves in two functional
areas. First, it is a liaison between students and
the Kellogg administration to provide feedback on
academic, programming and student services-related
issues. Second, the KPTSA is a student activities
organization, with the key goal of fostering student
interaction. The KPTSA plans career and alumni networking
events, community service events, social events and
speaker events, and it serves as a link to the Kellogg
Alumni Association and the full-time program’s
Kellogg Student Association (KSA).
As members of the student community, all part-time
students belong to the KPTSA and are encouraged to
participate in KPTSA-sponsored activities or serve
as a committee member or vice president. Events sponsored
by the KPTSA include Career Day, The Managers’
Ball, cultural outings to area plays and concerts,
the B-School Olympics, food and clothing drives, and
networking events with alumni.
Student Clubs and Associations
In addition to the KPTSA, students lead an array of
clubs. These groups sponsor quarterly networking and
speaker events for part-time and full-time students,
thus providing an avenue to learn about the latest
industry trends and events from leaders working within
those respective industries.
The clubs are:
