Executive Round Table provides students with a unique experience to articulate ideas in a business-like environment, found no where else at Georgia Tech. Students are given the opportunity to teach, learn and share ideas with a diverse group of community leaders. The format of open-ended discussions in a professional forum provide the opportunity to develop professionalism and enhance speaking skills while networking and interacting with other students, faculty and corporate leaders. Each member has the ability to discuss a wide variety of topics and provide their own unique perspective to any discussion. ERT also provides students the opportunity to learn more about the issues that are currently affecting business and academics and how the leaders in each realm are dealing with them. Membership in Executive Round Table is both a privilege and a great opportunity to learn.

Membership Requirements

In order for students to receive the most benefit from ERT as possible, there are several membership requirements:

Attendance
Students can only benefit from ERT if they regularly attend dinner meetings. Attendance is required at 2/3 of the dinner meetings when in Atlanta. The Board of Directors has the ability to review individuals who have failed to attend several dinner meetings. This policy does take into account out-of-town coops, internships and summers away from campus.

RSVP Policy
Reservations for a dinner meetings are sent via Evite. A response is required from the student by the Friday prior to the dinner meeting. You must cancel your reservation by Monday at 5pm to avoid being charged for your meal.

Financial
All students are required to pay annual dues of $30. Each dinner meeting costs $15, due by check or cash at the beginning of that meeting. If a student RSVPs "yes" to a meeting but fails to attend a dinner meeting, he will still be help responsible for the cost of his dinner ($15).
