Ankita Kodali began Rutgers Business School-New Brunswick as a shy student who sat in the back of the room and listened quietly when she joined a campus organization.
By the second half of her sophomore year, she had served in one or two leadership positions in small student groups and accepted the role of president for the Rutgers Business School Innovation Committee (RBSIC), which works closely with the Office of Career Management. By the end of her senior year, she would be president of two other student groups.
