Welcome from the Dean
After thinking about the college's and my future, I informed Chancellor Brady Deaton and Provost Brian Foster on October 9 that at the end of summer 2010, I will conclude my service as dean. At that time, I will have completed 20 years in the role of dean of MU's business school.

At the Intersection of Theory and Practice:
Professional Development at the Trulaske College of Business
The corporate visit to AT&T headquarters, which was arranged by MU alumnus Cindy Brinkley and hosted by Mark Kiehl (BS BA '83), included this "photo op" and the chance to interact with executives.
Underpinnings of Excellence
Three years ago, the college surveyed alumni, students, and recruiters to obtain their perceptions and opinions about the educational experience provided in business and accountancy. The responses showed that alumni and students believe the education furnished by MU's business school is rigorous and comprehensive.
This view is not limited to those who have an affiliation with the college, either. In peer evaluations, such as reported in U.S. News & World Report, the college is held in high esteem. Out of approximately 1,400 undergraduate business programs in the United States, the college BS BA program ranks in the top 5 percent in the nation.
