Calling All MBA Students: Let Your Opinion Be Heard!
The Princeton Review requests your direct feedback about your experience in the MBA program at Vanderbilt University's Owen Graduate School of Management in their annual student opinion survey.

Your insights on academics, fellow students, social life, clubs, school traditions, professor/student interaction, career services, alumni network, internship opportunities, etc. provide invaluable guidance for MBA-bound students searching for their best-fit program.

Your anonymous feedback drives the narrative, rankings, and ratings in The Princeton Review’s graduate admissions titles and website. The survey only takes a few minutes to complete—your response is requested on or before February 23, 2024. Any analysis and results will be based on anonymized data.

Facilities Update
Starting 2/23: LED Overhead Lighting Install
Starting on Monday, February 26, we will start performing work to install all new LED overhead lighting in classroom 204. This includes the canopy lights as well as the wall washers on the brick wall. We anticipate the project taking two weeks and will have it ready for class following Spring Immersion.

All furniture will be removed from the room starting on Friday, February 23. During set-up, the crew will be using elevator 3 closest to the law building to bring all tools and scaffolding into the building. The same will also happen during tear-down. The student lounge 202 will not be impacted by the project and will be available for use.

Richard Willis: Esteemed Owen professor helping other faculty achieve success
When Richard Willis went to work after graduate school as a market analyst for E&J Gallo Winery, he did not envision his career path leading to the Vanderbilt Owen Graduate School of Management, where he has become a highly respected accounting professor.

In addition to being admired and appreciated by students and colleagues for his teaching and mentoring skills, he is a leading voice at Vanderbilt for improving processes that help faculty and research staff achieve their goals.
