Welcome to Hamline School of Business
On Wednesday, August 26 new DPA, MPA and MNM students attended orientation on the Saint Paul campus. On Saturday, August 29 over 100 new MBA, MPA, and MNM students will be officially welcomed to their new graduate programs. We are happy to have you here.
Many of our graduate students and faculty were active over the summer, but nevertheless, fall feels like a time when everyone is coming back to campus to hit the books. New students in our undergraduate programs will be coming to campus at various times in the coming days. The start of a new term means the "Mindset List" is released. This list gives readers an idea of what first-year traditional students have experienced since their births in 1991! |
