ABOUT CWIB
Collegiate Women In Business (CWIB) at Virginia Tech was created in the spring of 2014 by Gina French, former Chief of Staff of the Pamplin College of Business. A panel of female business professors and students was assembled to further discuss the idea and help it become a reality.
Five undergraduate students were the founders of our organization, officially becoming registered with the university on June 26th, 2014. Their hope is to expand over time as a well-known group of business professionals that helps foster the guiding principles of the organization: EMPOWER, PREPARE & CONNECT.
