Dear Alumni and Friends,

This is an exciting time for the Anderson Graduate School of Management, a time of growth and change. It is our time and we are in the right place for identifying and developing the growth markets and industries of the future and to lead the next generation of managers. Our School, with its dedicated faculty and staff, has already accomplished much in my first 100 days as Dean. That we have accomplished so much so quickly is a testament to the talented people at AGSM and reinforces how much opportunity awaits us in the future.

As we look to the exciting future ahead, we also want to acknowledge our past achievements. The most important of these achievements are embodied in you, our alumni and the successes that have resulted from the seeds planted during your time at AGSM. We have much to share with you, and I hope this, the first of our quarterly e-newsletters, will help us stay connected through the exciting times ahead.

 In this newsletter, you will find exciting news regarding our School, our programs, our faculty and staff, and our students. You will also be linked to our Web site, where you will find our alumni directory. I encourage you to stay connected with us and your former classmates and friends by entering or updating your information in the directory. Please encourage your classmates to sign up if they have not already done so. In the near future, we will also make available to you a publicly viewable master calendar to help keep you abreast of goings-on at AGSM.

I hope you enjoy this new resource. Your continued involvement in our School is a crucial part of its future success and growth. There will assuredly be much more to come, and I hope you will join us as AGSM continues its growth.

I hope to see you at homecoming.

Meet the Dean
