Letter from the Editor

The story of a journalism student lost in Van Munching

I am a journalism major. Go ahead.  Make the jokes. We journalism majors know we will probably live in boxes five years from now because we chose to get involved in a dying field.

Farewell, Mr. Smith

Robert H. Smith leaves behind a legacy of generousity in the business school.

The name Robert H. Smith stands emblazoned across the many walls and walkways of Van Munching Hall. For most students, the name represents the title of a business school. But the man behind the title lent far more than nomenclature to a 238,000 square-foot south campus abode.

Getting to the Top

A Finance Fellows, FBIS, and SSWS Event

 

Inspired by yet another bout of procrastination, I attended the Getting to the Top event last week. Despite my motivations, I am now really that that I went. I was having one of my most grueling and buys weeks of the semester; and attending the event midway through the week, as corny as it sounds, inspired me to plug through and find a renewed energy. Now, maybe just reading about it will help one of you get through a rough week.  

We Have a WHAT?

It's Up To You

Being proactive in the Smith School

After a year of college I've learned some valuable life lessons… there are such things as stupid questions; professors are actually "real people," and most importantly if you want something enough, you can have it.
