Student-Athletes Learn Proper Etiquette Off the Field

Camille Simmons stood up in front of a room full of people and spoke about the best piece of advice she had ever gotten from a coach.

"He told me that when I'm not practicing, is my opponent is," said Simmons, the sophomore fencer. "If I want to be better than them, I have to put in the work."

That is exactly what forty-five student-athletes were doing on Wednesday, September 27, when they attended the annual Etiquette Dinner hosted by Career Services to kick off career week.

The student-athletes weren't working to get better on the court or on the field, instead they were working to get better in the business world.
