On March 3, senior Management and Arts & Entertainment majors in the College of Business had the opportunity to network with alumni and receive guidance as they participated in managerial situation simulations during the College’s 10th annual RealTest Event.

Activities included a mock interview and a problem-solving scenario based on a real case study, with 25 alumni serving as their coaches and mentors. Students also delivered PowerPoint presentations and received feedback from alumni. The event was organized by the Department of Management with support from the Office of Alumni Relations.  

"All the coaches really enjoyed the day," said Jack Greeley, professional educator of management. "Students always place a high value on this activity."
