PLU MBA Program

Note to Dean Jim Brock

As I prepare for graduation from the MBA Program in December 2011, I want to say thank you for a great educational experience. From the level of our instructors, to the 10-day international experience, to the State Farm Speaker Series, to the Technology Alliance Series, it has been superb. I will graduate from PLU feeling the value was well worth the costs. Thanks again. Travis Delker, MBA
