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.
