UNK – The collegiate chapter of the American Marketing Association (AMA) at the University of Nebraska at Kearney has elected officers for the 2010-2011 school year.

“The AMA is considered to be the premier trade association for marketing professionals,” said Marsha Yeagley, AMA faculty adviser. “Students develop networking and leadership skills and are exposed to marketing careers, while working on marketing- related projects.”

The group also tours local businesses and is involved in philanthropic projects, conferences and career fairs.  Recently, the AMA participated in the 2010 September Nebraska Aids Walk helping to raise more than $7,000, which will be used locally to assist those with HIV/AIDS.
