A Night with the Stars 2007 - Eller College of Management ...

“The Eller Board of Honor and Integrity aims to educate the student community about the
importance of creating an ethical learning environment with an emphasis on honesty in all of
life's pursuits. In order to create a culture of integrity, we lead by example and act as liaisons
between the students and the professional and academic communities. Our mission extends
beyond the classroom as we inspire students to act as responsible leaders and world citizens.”
The Eller Board of Honor and Integrity has been actively involved in furthering the importance of
integrity and honesty through educational awareness. The Board continues to host their annual
International Ethics Case Competition in which teams from schools across the country are given
the opportunity to compete, network, and contemplate the value of corporate social
responsibility. Their intense magnetism has helped dramatically increase their professional
relationships and sponsorship with companies such as Target, Ethics Point, Hewlett-Packard, KB
Homes, Metro Restaurants, Walgreen’s, and the Tucson Better Business Bureau. The Eller Board
of Honor and Integrity has worked to improve the University of Arizona through classroom
presentations stressing the importance of academic integrity and participating in Eller’s “Be
Heard Week”. They have also reached out to the local community though the Better Business
Bureau Ethics Awards Competition and their inaugural High School Ethics Forum. We
congratulate the Eller Board of Honor and Integrity for their outstanding performance as an Eller
student organization.
Outstanding Student Organization President
This award was created to recognize innovative presidents of Eller College undergraduate
student organizations. Executive Board members from each Eller student organization may
nominate their president for this award. The Eller Leadership Board (ELB) selects one president
who has been instrumental in developing unique and successful student experiences while
supporting the mission of the college. Specifically, applicants are judged based on innovation,
member recruitment, member retention, and leadership effectiveness.
2007 The Wall Street Journal Student Achievement Award
Tim Lake, American Marketing Association (AMA)
Tim Lake, president of AMA for the past two years, has proven invaluable to the organization
and to the college for his leadership effectiveness and innovation. He increased AMA member
participation by surveying members so that he could better tailor events to meet their needs.
Taking this into consideration, he instituted several new innovative events that attracted
widespread support in the organization: the Mr. and Ms. Eller Pageant sponsored by Macys,
Homecoming Tent festivities, Adobe Photoshop Training, and the Spotlight on Marketing Careers
Banquet. He has also fostered partnerships with several corporate sponsors, including Phillip
Morris and Enterprise. Last spring, Tim led AMA in winning four awards at the AMA National
Conference, which they also attended this year. AMA members would describe Tim’s leadership
style as democratic in nature, which effectively inspires members to actively contribute their
time and talents to the organization. We applaud Tim for his outstanding leadership and
contribution to the American Marketing Association and the Eller College of Management. Tim
