Letter from the Dean
I am very excited to share with you our latest edition of the Business Bulletin, where we highlight another incredible and recordbreaking semester in the ISU College of Business. From unprecedented student opportunities and success, to outstanding faculty and staff achievements, to new endowments and program growth that will forever positively impact the College of Business, I am so proud to be part of one the best Business schools in the world. I’m so excited for the extraordinarily bright future our College has ahead.
This welcome is a little different, as it will be my final one at Idaho State University. I am honored to be selected to serve as the next
President of Cameron University in Lawton, OK. As a first generation college graduate who grew up in that state, I can speak first hand about the transformative power of public higher education in Oklahoma. Cameron University is filled with incredible faculty and staff, and I am so excited for the positive impact we are going to make together on the future of our students and community.
I am thrilled to share that my friend, colleague and ICCU Endowed Professor of Management Dr. Alex Bolinger will be serving as the Interim Dean of the College of Business. Alex represents the very best of what it means to be a professor and leader. ISU and our community are incredibly fortunate to have him serve in this role.
While we will be leaving Idaho, I am forever thankful for the privilege to serve as Dean of the College of Business and Michael C. Ruettgers Professor of Marketing at Idaho State University. I have never worked with a more caring, genuine and student-focused group of colleagues, or a more inspiring group of students, than what I have been blessed with in the College of Business. Idaho State University and the Pocatello community will always have a special place in my heart, and I will be forever proud that our son is an ISU graduate. Thank you to everyone who has made our five years here so special. Go Bengals!
