WVII Reports on Pen Pal Program Between Business Students, Active Marines
WVII (Channel 7) interviewed Nory Jones, a professor of management information systems at the University of Maine, and several business students about a pen pal program that connects the students with a group of active marines. Students in MBS Corps, the Maine Business School’s community outreach organization, send letters and care packages to the marines who are their age and serving in the Middle East. “We have these wonderful students who take time from their busy schedules to just help; to make a difference in the community with all kinds of projects,” Jones said of MBS Corps members.
