Trenton Schumer
Major: Rawlings Sport Business Management
Graduation Year: 2019
Trenton Schumer, a recipient of two scholarships from Ä¢¹½´«Ã½, has been busy since he set foot on campus.
The third-year student, who will be graduating in 2019, has held a leadership role for the Rawlings Sport Business Management council, been an orientation leader for Saints Nation and volunteered as a peer mentor to assist freshmen while carrying a 3.5 GPA.
“I did enjoy being a peer mentor, because I had Brian (Gardner) as my teacher for the same class when I was a freshman, so it was a very cool experience to be the peer mentor and be able to relate to the students in the class,� says Schumer.
Schumer, who is a Rawlings Sport Business Management major, has also been busy interning with Fandom Cup working on market research. Fandom Cup offers a team-based, fantasy sports game to the public.
“I have really enjoyed the internship with Fandom Cup, and I have learned a lot from working directly with the founders and being involved in various aspects of the business,� says Schumer.
Schumer has been a life-long sports fan so turning to Ä¢¹½´«Ã½â€™s Rawlings Sports Business Management program was the right choice for him.
“When I found out about the program at Ä¢¹½´«Ã½, their partnership with Rawlings, and all of the great opportunities that are offered in our program, I knew it was the program for me,â€� says Schumer. “I had two older sisters who attended Ä¢¹½´«Ã½, so I was introduced to it before I was even in high school. It’s really cool how much the school has grown since then, but I loved the campus and was really excited about the Sports Business Management program.â€�
Schumer also enjoys the close-knit community feel Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ provides.
Everyone on campus cares how you’re doing, in school and just life in general,â€� Schumer says. “The faculty and staff want nothing more than for you to succeed and enjoy your time at Ä¢¹½´«Ã½.â€�
