Delta Sigma Pi LEAD Conference

On February 21-23, 3 LCOB students represented Marshall University at Delta Sigma Pi's 2025 North Central LEAD Provincial Conference in Chicago, IL. Our students in attendance were James Buskirk (ACC/FIN/MGT senior), Isabel Horter (MKT senior), and Jamison Lewis (1st-year MBA student). They had an amazing experience at this conference, networking with student and professional brothers from across the U.S., developing their business skills and fraternity knowledge at workshops/business sessions, and exploring landmarks throughout Chicago.

Also, Isabel was recognized as Delta Sigma Pi's 2025 East Central Regional Collegian of the Year, recognizing her outstanding service to the Fraternity in many chapter positions over the past 4 years. She also became the first-ever brother from Marshall's chapter to receive the regional award, earning this recognition over candidates from many much larger chapters. Congrats to Isabel!
