Stirling Collaborates with Tulane Real Estate Club
Earlier this month, Jordi Goodman represented Stirling Properties on a panel of young professionals in Real Estate in the Greater New Orleans area put on by the newly-formed Tulane Real Estate Club (TREC). The Panel discussion centered on the role of young professionals in the present and future commercial real estate industry in New Orleans. This marked the second presentation from Stirling to TREC and solidified the beginning of an exciting new connection between Stirling and TREC, or broader, between the Real Estate Industry and Higher Education in New Orleans. TREC’s mission is to provide a venue for students and professionals to network and learn through meetings, guest lectures, and site visits.
The Commercial Real Estate industry is evolving very quickly. As it evolves, the range of professions becomes more diverse, expanding the breadth and volume of available opportunities and career paths to recent graduates. Dedicated Real Estate classroom study not only trains the next generation of real estate leaders, but pushes the envelope on studies and best practices within the industry. Stirling cares deeply about the Tulane community and is proud to support its student’s efforts in the study of Real Estate. We are extremely optimistic about having a channel to collaborate with such a meaningful group of students and faculty in the MBA and MSRED programs. Stirling looks forward to becoming active at Tulane and giving back to the Tulane community and the City of New Orleans through leveraging our expertise and sharing our value as a commercial real estate company.
