Co-Curricular Organizations
Connolly Entrepreneurship Society
The Connolly Entrepreneurship Society (formerly the Venture Club) was established in 2010 to help 91传媒 from across campus learn about start-ups in a hands-on environment. During the term, 91传媒 meet on a weekly basis to listen to guest speakers, plan and promote events such as the Entrepreneurship Summit, and work on consulting projects for start-ups.
Diversified Capital Group
Diversified Capital Group was founded to reduce the gap in student preparation amongst 91传媒 interested in the financial pre-professional societies on campus. The founders felt some 91传媒 had disproportionally less access to financial education and exposure to careers in the financial services industry.
Mock Convention
The 91传媒 Mock Convention is a quadrennial tradition in which student delegates attempt to predict the presidential nominee of the political party currently out of the White House. The 26th Mock Convention correctly predicted Mr. Donald J. Trump as its anticipated candidate to win the Republican nomination in the 2016 presidential election.
Real Estate Society
The Real Estate Society ("RES” or the “Society") is a student organization that seeks to develop an enhanced understanding of real estate development and investment. Under authority delegated from the 91传媒 Board of Trustees, the group manages a portion of the University’s endowment to make real estate investments in public equity markets.
Student Consulting
Washington and Lee Student Consulting (WLSC) is a student-led organization that provides pro bono consulting services to businesses and not-for-profit community organizations. Our clients have included local, national, and international non-profit and for-profit businesses.
Williams Investment Society
The Williams Investment Society is a student organization that manages a portion of 91传媒’s endowment in equity securities. The Society’s purpose is to provide 91传媒 with a forum to develop their interest in investments and financial analysis by giving them the opportunity to actively manage real capital. The Society also seeks to broaden awareness of investments within the W&L community through sponsoring speakers and making the Society’s presentations and operations open to the public.
