Homecoming

Welcome back alums!

We hope to see many of you at the Homecoming Events. Do stop and say hello.

Lots of new things on campus: if you haven't seen the Hicks Center renovation, be sure to visit it. It's undergone a real transformation.

There are new ways for alumni to connect with students, faculty, and other alums. Several graduates of our department have returned to Kalamazoo to share their experience with current students. Many people are becoming involved in the new Business Guild, which is creating a network of K graduates, students, faculty, and friends who share a common interest in business. The business guild is sponsoring several events at Homecoming, so you can find out more. Or see the Guilds website for more information.

Department faculty will be holding a panel discussion on the financial crisis, Saturday afternoon at 4:30 in Dewing 103.
