David D. Reh School of Business Newsletter: Winter 2024
Message From the Dean
Snow has come to the North Country (of course!) as we highlight some major media attention, a winning student team and more in this month's issue of the Reh School of Business Newsletter. All of our faculty and students do incredible work every day, but I'm always proud to see our faculty research featured in media clips from major news organizations. At the same time, back on campus, our creative engineering & management students have taken top place in a campuswide competition. We're excited about the accomplishments of all of our students and faculty, and I hope that you enjoy reading about them as much as I enjoy working with them daily. Stay warm!
— Bebonchu Atems, Interim Dean of the Reh School of Business
