Third Annual Beyond BK Dinner Celebrates Internships of FHU Business Students

From Capitol Hill to corporate boardrooms, students in the Freed-Hardeman College of Business recounted the meaningful internship experiences that took them beyond the classroom and into their fields at the Third Annual Beyond BK Intern Recognition Dinner. Sponsored by Watkins Uiberall, PLLC, the event celebrated the hard work, resilience and dedication of students who tested their classroom knowledge in real-world settings.

Of the 32 business student interns recognized at the dinner, seven were chosen to speak on their internship experiences and encourage other students to seek opportunities. Speakers were Daniel Grooms, a senior accounting major who interned at Ernst & Young; Griffin Collins, a sophomore finance and law and politics major who interned for U.S. Sen. Mitch McConnell; Aidan Harrison, a senior business analytics major who interned with Transcard; Elizabeth McKeeby, a junior accounting major who interned with UHY, LLP; Jadyn Hope, a senior marketing major who interned at DPW Manufacturing; Grigorii Sibilev, a graduate business major who interned at Integrity Music Company; and Zena Dorris, a senior marketing major who interned with 2-COM Communication Components.
