Innovision Spring 2024

LETTER FROM THE DEAN Dr. Anne Carroll Dean, College of Business This spring our campus has been especially beautiful, and it reminds me of one of the many reasons that Kutztown University is such a special place. It is hard to believe that we have finished our first academic year in our newly renovated College of Business home! We have utilized our new space in so many ways, from hosting the second annual high school sport business case competition, open houses, internship fairs, networking events, and sadly, a memorial service. We recently lost Dr. Therese Maskulka, a beloved marketing professor, leader and friend unexpectedly this winter while she was on sabbatical. In this issue, we fondly remember her. This summer we are welcoming a new Associate Dean, Dr. Chali Nondo. Dr. Nondo, an economist, comes to us from Jackson State University, where he served as chair of the Department of Business Administration. He comes just in time to help us prepare for our upcoming AACSB reaccreditation visit. Our students, faculty and alumni continue to make us proud and in these pages you will see why. Here, you will only see highlights from the spring semester, but there are many more activities and events that get no mention here. For example, our business clubs host many professionals as speakers and serve our communities in various ways. Our faculty are trying new things in the classroom and strengthening their engagement with the business community. All of these things contribute to making our College a great place for students to develop as business professionals! 4 | INNOVISION MAGAZINE
