MADDIE MITCHELL<br />

worked at a Target store in St.<br />

Louis during high school and<br />

developed an admiration for<br />

the human resources officer.<br />

“Whenever we had an issue, we<br />

went to her, and she helped us<br />

figure it out. She was just there for<br />

everybody.” So as Mitchell looked<br />

for a university in a warm locale,<br />

majoring in management with a<br />

concentration in human resources<br />

at the Mitchell College of Business<br />

seemed perfect. Earning a Mitchell<br />

Scholarship sealed the deal.<br />

Human resources appealed to<br />

her as “a good mix of numbers<br />

and people.” She soon realized<br />

the complexity of that mix. “In<br />

management, you aren’t just<br />

learning about people and<br />

managing them, but you also<br />

do delve into the numbers side<br />

or the marketing. I learned the<br />

importance of having something<br />

that you’re strong in besides just<br />

managing people.” Eventually, she<br />

would like to work at a staffing<br />

agency that supplies workers for<br />

businesses in a variety of industries.<br />
