Hello. My name is Hilda Ad-eniji and I am currently a se-nior at Pace University major-ing in Communications and a double minor in Digital Design and Marketing .

I have a great passion for art and design. While in school I am trying to gain as much knowledge and experience as possible.

FLYERS 4-5

ILLUSTRATION 6-8

ADDITIONAL WORK 9-11

As a Public Relations Coordinator for P.A.C.E Board, the entertainment planning orga-nization at Pace University, I was responsible for media planning of our major events

such as our Legacy events Amateur Night and Homecoming Concert. I personally produced the flyers for the events as well as managed the social media outlets. In Fall 2010, we sold out to maximum capacity for both events. Along with promoting events for P.A.C.E. Board I also had the opportunity to experience first hand: detailed event planning and execution, semes-terly budget planning with allocations of about $75k, and backstage artist assistance.

the University’s student Government as-sociation (sGa) met with various facultymembers on Oct. 19 to discuss how the Uni-versity handles student financial aid—or mis-handles as many students explained duringthe meeting.

this was the second OrganizationalCouncil Community Meeting of the year.Dean for students Marijo russell O’Grady,several heads of departments, representativesfrom dining services, members of the securitydepartment as well as financial aid officersmet with the sGa to discuss the issue of howpoorly run students find the financial aid of-fice to be.

the meeting primarily centered on a pres-entation aimed at the financial aid depart-ment, given by Judicial Council Chair,sophomore Breanna romaine. the presenta-tion exposed the frustration and grief thatmany students have with the department.

romaine explained that she was there to

represent students’ disappointment with the“poor communication and lack of knowledge”from the financial aid department. romainebacked her presentation with quotes fromUniversity students, statistics and testimoni-als.

romaine began her presentation by ex-plaining that last year every student at theschool received extra money by accident—putting the University $20 million short ofwhat they had anticipated.

what the school then did was cancelmany students’ grants and other financial aidthey had previously received.

romaine explained that she was not argu-ing that this had happened, but she was“fighting the fact that [financial aid] didn’ttell students.”

she explained that many students did notreceive their bill until september. when thesestudents were finally able to make payments,they were charged a late fee.

“students didn’t know, until they got toPace, that they had to take out another loanbecause they were never notified,” romainesaid.

sophomore Michael Boyle can attest tothis frustration. He struggled all summer, try-ing to get the financial aid department to cer-tify his loan.

“i was continually told, ‘the financial aidcounselors will be certifying the private loansthis week’ and that it should be done by theend of the week,’ Boyle said. “when i calledback [at the end of the week] i was told ‘thecounselors haven't completed certifying theprivate loans yet, but they will be doing themover the weekend.’”

after getting no information via tele-phone from financial aid, Boyle stopped bythe department to speak with a financialcounselor in person.

“i was told that my ‘loan could not be cer-tified until a lease was provided’ since iwould be living in an apartment off campus.However, everyone failed to mention this de-tail in the two weeks that i had been callingprior,” Boyle said.

Boyle was not alone in his struggles withfinancial aid. in her presentation, romaineexplained that she had surveyed 90 studentsand spoke with over 200 students. from thissurvey, she gathered that 67 percent of stu-dents have had difficulties with financial aid.

romaine also said that many students feltthat financial aid representatives were nothelpful, not polite and not knowledgeable.

she drew attention to the fact that it wasnot just a few students who had these issues,but it was “mistake after mistake, error aftererror, student after student.”

PROJECTS

In a my Advertising and Promotions Market-ing class, we were given the assignment to

re-brand JC Penney to appeal to women ages 25 - 35. By conducting some research my team of 5 classmates, ROIR Ad Agency, was able to develop a unique marketing strategy around the main idea of “selling values” with the brand, JCPenney. These mock JCPenney ads, I developed for the team, show different life situations with various emotions while emphasizing how these expressions can be synonymous with JCPenney brands and products.
