One of the college’s goals has been to expand the participation of our advisory board at the college and department level. Not only the college, but the MIS and ACCT departments have advisory boards with nationally prominent leaders in their discipline. The MIS department has had a board in past years, but due to changes in administration and faculty, the board was reconstituted in 2005.
