During her time at Meredith,聽Cody Jeffery, 鈥�16,聽completed four internships, studied abroad in China, served as a Learning Center tutor, and wrote an honors thesis on the relationship between non-violent horse training, equine legislation, and the North Carolina economy.

鈥淎ll of these things helped me hone in on my strengths in new ways and expose my weaknesses so that I could improve upon them.鈥�

A聽business administration聽major with minors in聽professional writing and presentation media,聽economics, and聽communication, Cody now works as an operations analyst for global financial services company Credit Suisse.

She said that her Meredith experience 鈥� especially her relationships with faculty 鈥� prepared her for success.

鈥淣ot only did I get to know many of my professors, but I felt that they genuinely cared about my education. They took the time and energy to ensure that we learned things that were applicable to our real lives.鈥�

Cody also was actively involved in campus life, participating in and leading a number of different organizations.

鈥淏y the time I was senior, I was the editor-in-chief of聽The Meredith Herald聽and co-president of the Student Business Advisory Board. Both of these organizations allowed me to build relationships across campus, grow as a leader, and shape my future.鈥�

Cody also volunteered off-campus for equine therapeutic organizations.

鈥淪ince my horse lived an hour away, I wanted to be around horses during the week and be able to give back to the community at the same time. Everything that I was involved in at Meredith allowed me to apply what I was learning in the classroom to real life situations 鈥� whether as leader, a follower, or a learner.鈥�

An honors scholar, Cody also participated in three honor societies: Kappa Nu Sigma, Alpha Lambda Delta, and Beta Gamma Sigma.

鈥淭he best part of my Meredith experience was the support system I found every way that I turned. Each and every opportunity I took made me a stronger, more well-rounded individual.鈥�
