The Ole Miss Marketing Organization

 

The Ole Miss Marketing Organization (OMMO) is a student organization that strives to introduce students to every aspect of the field of marketing by exposing them to business professionals and giving them hands-on experience through projects and other initiatives. It hosts a number of speaker events throughout the fall and spring semesters, inviting industry professionals to make presentations to members. In addition to the speaker events, OMMO holds an annual Meet-And-Greet event where students have an opportunity to meet one-on-one with potential recruiters. During the Spring semester, OMMO usually has a field trip. Last year OMMO attended the Nashville Marketing Career Fair and a Grizzlies game and event during which members met Andy Dolich, the Grizzlies' Director of Marketing at the FedEx Forum.
