A look at what's new at the Ross School of Business
Gene Anderson, Associate Dean for Degree Programs
Issue date: 9/11/06 Section: Dean's Office
September is always an exciting time of year here at the School. New and returning students bring such a terrific energy as they arrive on campus. It is really a time of celebration and renewal for our community.
As we all get started on our work together for the next eight months, the table to the right presents an overview of "what's new" around here - including the new students joining our community and a few other items that are new and/or forthcoming:
What else is new?
As most of you are now aware, this Fall our community has adopted a new set of procedures covering academic honesty, student conduct, and faculty-student disputes. They are the result of a terrific team effort between students, faculty, and staff over the last year-and-a-half. Please make sure that you are familiar with and support these responsibilities.
You may have also noticed that we have even better space this year - even though there is most definitely less of it to go around.
Our greatest challenge continues to be classrooms for our BBA program. We have worked hard with LS&A to house many of our core courses in their classrooms. We've upgraded the technology in those classrooms to ensure the right learning experience in classes held over there. In addition, we have managed to keep most BBA electives - especially those commonly taken by senior BBAs - here at the School.
Over the Summer, the Facilities group led by John Bresette and Jim Murdock worked hard to upgrade our remaining classrooms. Highlights of these home improvements include:
• Remodeling E0530 and E1530 to provide tiered seating in a discussion format.
• Adding electrical and computer network connections to each seat in those two classrooms plus K1310, K1320, E0540, E0550, E1540 and E1550.
• Upgrading of the primary restrooms in all three corridors of the E building.
• Renovating the third floor east of Kresge Library to provide 17 interview rooms for the Office of Career Development and Admissions. These rooms will be available as group study rooms when not in use by OCD or Admissions.
