Penn State Brings the Magic

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at PSU chapter.

Last night, a packed Eisenhower Auditorium got to the chance to learn from NBA legend and successful businessman Magic Johnson at the Future Summit. Johnson talked about his transition from the basketball court to the boardroom and stressed the importance of believing in yourself and your strategy. Johnson’s speech was inspiring and entertaining, packed with great life lessons and some hilarious anecdotes about competitor and friend Larry Bird. The event ended in a well-deserved standing ovation, but what else would you expect for a guy named Magic?
