Dean's Message

 

Dick White

March was a busy and productive month for the E. J. Ourso College of Business. We proudly inducted William Balhoff, Toni Stephenson, and Robert Stuart Jr. into our Hall of Distinction. It was the first time we used the new Business Education Complex for the gala dinner event and, with Chef Don Bergeron's gourmet fare, The Rotunda became, at least for one night, the best restaurant in Baton Rouge.
