MEET YOUR REPRESENTATIVE
Hello!
My name is Mark Bender and I am one of
two newly inducted student trustees for Pi
Gamma Mu. I grew up in the Pittsburgh, PA
area and am currently a senior at Washington
and Jefferson College. I am on track to graduate
with B.A.s in Economics and History at
the end of the Spring 2009 semester. As for
the next step of my life, I am interested in
pursuing a doctoral degree in Economics.
Within the field itself, I plan to specialize in
Experimental Economics and/or Industrial Organization, both of
which are topics that fascinate me.
On campus, I am involved in many various activities. I am a member
of several other honor societies: Phi Beta Kappa, Omicron Delta
Epsilon, Phi Alpha Theta, Kappa Delta Epsilon, Alpha Lambda Delta,
and Order of Omega. I am an active brother of the fraternity Alpha
Tau Omega in which I dedicate a lot of my free time. I participate in
many campus clubs and activities including Model European Union,
Big Brothers Big Sisters, Outdoors Club, Economics Club, and mentoring
programs. I especially enjoy my work with our college radio
station, WNJR, in which I am both a music director and show host.
Anyone who knows me will admit that I am a huge music buff.
During my tenure as a student representative, I hope to supplement creativity, vigor, youthfulness, and excitement on the board. My friends often compliment me by saying I have a unique ability to think of ideas that nobody else can fathom, and I hope to use that ability to aid Pi Gamma Mu’s development. I am also a representative for all student members of Pi Gamma Mu, so if you ever have any comments or concerns, feel free to contact me. Finally, I recommend any student who uses Facebook to join Pi Gamma Mu’s group page; Facebook can be used for other means besides creeping!
Peace!
Mark Bender
