Advisory Board

 

Each year the Department of Business Administration and Economics asks alumni to come back to campus to share their insights with current students on the Friday before Homecoming. Students learn about trends in their majors and find out what people actually do on their jobs.

We encourage alumni to stay connected with the department through our Web resources as well as campus events.  Career Directions and Connections are offered every year on the Friday before Homecoming.  Please volunteer to share your career insights and suggestions on how current students can prepare for the challenges that they will face. Check out the alumni below from this year's session. If you would like to participate or have any questions, please contact coordinator Gloria Campbell.
