Testimonials

"Please share my extreme appreciation to the members of MACS for the support they provided to me during my recent consulting work with Dickinson College.  Some things may have changed in the industry, but the comradery and willingness to support fellow stores has not, and that is what makes organizations like MACS to valuable."

“Because of MACS, I am able to meet new people and create relationships with others in the college store world that I would not have been able to otherwise. It's one thing to see vendors, work with them, and learn about different products that benefit my store; but it's my colleagues at other stores that I learn the most from. When we relax and have a drink at the bar that seems to be the most "educational" part of the day!”

Karen Normann, CCR, The ‘Berg Bookshop at Muhlenberg College

“My very first industry meeting was a MACS Fall Meeting, and at that meeting, I met other managers with whom I have been friends for my entire 33 year career. It wasn’t long before I got involved on a committee, became a committee chairperson, and eventually was honored to serve as MACS President in 2003-2004. Along the way, I made many more MACS friends, shared the ups and downs of this industry, and each other’s careers, and served the MACS members together in every way. I credit MACS with having the greatest positive influence on my career and the development of my professionalism, among all the other organizations with which I’ve been involved. MACS is my ‘home’ within the college store industry. Is it yours?"
