The CCPP award

recognizes chapters for practicing good management skills, and is awarded

based on the historical success of the chapter. In 2001, Clayton State

SAM received the Outstanding New Campus Charter Award at the International

Conference in Las Vegas. This award laid the groundwork for the 2002 CCPP

award.

Not only was

the chapter as a whole acknowledged at the 2002 International Conference,

but individual student members and faculty were also recipients of SAM

awards.

Clayton State

SAM student member Keith Bleckley (Mableton/South Cobb High School) received

a SAM National Outstanding Student Award, one of only 15 given nationally.

Bleckley, president of Clayton State's SAM, is a senior, majoring in Psychology

and Human Services.

Bleckley, Armando

Castro (Peachtree City) and Julia Radmann (Wolfsburg, Germany) received

SAM Regional Outstanding Student awards. Castro, a management major at

Clayton State, plans to pursue a degree in International Business.

Radmann, vice-president

of SAM, graduated from the University May 2002 with a B.B.A. in Marketing.

Participants

representing Clayton State SAM in the SAM 2002 Case Competition included:

Bleckley, Castro and Radmann, as well as Amanda Sahlbom (Fayette County)

and Pricilla Cooper (Fulton County). Sahlbom, a marketing major at Clayton

State, will graduate in the spring of 2003 with High Honors. Cooper, an

accounting major at the University, is an active member of SAM and vice-president

of the Accounting Club.
