World Workplace 2007 Recap (part 1)

Through out the week students had the opportunity to attend several different educational sessions ranging from green building and sustainability to what to do as the new FM. The students also spent time at several different parties sponsored by IFMA. BYU students were definitely the life of the dance Friday night at the closing gala.


The closing gala gave students an excellent opportunity to mingle with professionals currently in the field, some from as far away as Sweden. The closing gala also featured an awards ceremony where BYU won the Student Chapter of the Year Award for the fourth consecutive year.

Students also had time to get out and see some of the sites of New Orleans. Some students participated in a Hurricane Katrina bus tour and had the opportunity to see a lot of the areas still affected by Katrina.

More pictures to come as well as feedback from individual students on their experience.
