For student speaker Friedman, organization is key

If you want something done, ask a busy man. Or a Sig Ep. Preferably both.

Jordan Friedman has burned it up at Washington University in St. Louis.

When Jordan Friedman sat down to discuss his years at the University, he did something fairly significant.

He actually sat down.

Pretty unusual posture for a person always on the run.

Friedman, president of the senior class and this year's student Commencement speaker, is a very busy man. From being class president during each of his four years at the University to planning Senior Week activities, he doesn't get much time for rest.

"You can never run your life by trying to finish a project and move on to something else, because there is always something else," Friedman said. "I've learned to enjoy the process and enjoy the path I'm on, because life is a blur and college is even faster."

Outside his governmental duties, Friedman was a member of Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity and the University's judicial board, as well as serving as an ambassador for the University at various community functions and as a teaching assistant for finance to students in the Olin School of Business.
