Phillips encouraged the new graduates to remain active in the life of the college and the university.
“Stay in touch with your career counselor, get involved in alumni affairs, attend Georgia State networking events, virtually or in-person. There are 80,000 Robinson College alumni, many of whom live in the Atlanta area. You will not find a larger or more powerful network of business school alumni in this region. You will also not find a more helpful group of individuals – so don’t be shy,” Phillips said.
