- [00:00:00.560]Hi, I'm John Jacobson, a
- [00:00:02.060]finance major here at the
- [00:00:03.440]University of Nebraska-Lincoln.
- [00:00:05.280]My friends and I are excited to
- [00:00:06.840]show you around Hawks Hall,
- [00:00:08.430]home to the College of Business.
- [00:00:10.160]This video is recorded in
- [00:00:11.500]virtual reality, meaning you
- [00:00:13.070]can look up,
- [00:00:14.000]down, or around for a more
- [00:00:15.590]immersive sense of place. Let's
- [00:00:17.650]get started.
- [00:00:18.240]Hawks Hall was built by alumni
- [00:00:21.050]for future alumni. It was
- [00:00:23.420]entirely constructed using
- [00:00:24.800]private donations. Inside, you'll
- [00:00:26.810]find access to high-tech
- [00:00:28.090]classrooms, quiet study spots,
- [00:00:30.320]group work areas, a cafe, and
- [00:00:32.210]access to all of our free
- [00:00:33.680]resources here for support
- [00:00:35.380]services,
- [00:00:36.080]from academic advising to
- [00:00:37.750]career coaching and tutoring.
- [00:00:39.920]Behind me is one of the coolest
- [00:00:41.230]rooms in the building, the
- [00:00:42.530]trading room. Let's check it
- [00:00:43.740]out.
- [00:00:44.000]We are now in the trading room.
- [00:00:46.430]This room features a Bloomberg
- [00:00:48.790]terminal,
- [00:00:49.360]the same tech used on Wall
- [00:00:50.720]Street. It's a hands-on way to
- [00:00:52.420]explore finance in action.
- [00:00:54.240]Outside the
- [00:00:54.720]classroom there are more than
- [00:00:56.100]25 business-related student
- [00:00:57.700]organizations. Some even manage
- [00:00:59.600]real
- [00:00:59.920]investment portfolios, while
- [00:01:01.520]others dive into venture
- [00:01:02.580]capital and investment banking.
- [00:01:04.320]Let's see what else is on the
- [00:01:05.230]first floor. The College of
- [00:01:07.220]Business has 12 majors,
- [00:01:09.600]which means whatever major you
- [00:01:11.170]choose, you'll get real-world
- [00:01:12.870]experience.
- [00:01:13.440]We're a strengths-based
- [00:01:15.230]business school, which means we
- [00:01:17.580]help you find and discover
- [00:01:19.440]what you're good at, and use
- [00:01:20.980]that to help you succeed as
- [00:01:22.410]well. Strengths-based
- [00:01:24.480]psychology
- [00:01:24.640]psychology was actually founded
- [00:01:27.130]on this campus. Its professor
- [00:01:29.160]is the namesake to the Clifton
- [00:01:30.700]Strengths Institute. My friend
- [00:01:33.900]Taylor is now going to tell you
- [00:01:35.140]a little bit more about
- [00:01:36.200]the Clifton Strengths Institute.
- [00:01:37.980]Hi, I'm Taylor Mazur, an
- [00:01:39.960]accounting student here at
- [00:01:41.760]Nebraska.
- [00:01:42.180]I'm excited to show you more of
- [00:01:44.030]what you can look forward to as
- [00:01:45.740]a future Husker. During your
- [00:01:47.610]first
- [00:01:47.860]year here in Hawks Hall, you'll
- [00:01:49.410]take a class that includes one-on-one
- [00:01:51.080]coaching sessions with a
- [00:01:52.380]student strengths coach like me.
- [00:01:53.970]As student strengths coach, we're
- [00:01:55.550]trained by staff here
- [00:01:56.600]to help you adjust to college
- [00:01:57.950]and learn how to use your
- [00:01:59.060]strengths to meet your academic,
- [00:02:00.780]professional, and well-being
- [00:02:02.400]goals. The Clifton Strengths
- [00:02:04.040]Institute also includes the Clifton
- [00:02:06.000]Builders Program. This three-year
- [00:02:07.670]experience is for students who
- [00:02:09.000]want to learn how to build
- [00:02:10.180]businesses, lead teams, and
- [00:02:11.600]make a difference in their
- [00:02:12.800]communities. You'll learn more
