The beginning of each new academic year brings renewed energy and excitement across campus, especially at SMU Cox. Undergraduate interest in pursuing a business degree remains high, with 37 percent of SMU’s first-year students enrolled as pre-business this fall. Meanwhile, the caliber of our Cox BBA Scholars continues to rise, with this year’s average SAT score up to 1439. That’s 132 points higher than it was when SMU Cox welcomed the first class of BBA Scholars in the fall of 2002. The BBA Scholars program is vitally important to the Cox School and to SMU. It’s with great appreciation for one of the program’s biggest supporters that we feature Cox Executive Board member and SMU Board Chair Emeritus Carl Sewell on the cover of this CoxToday.
