The Daily Bruin

There will be a Business Major focus group at 10:40 a.m. Monday, Sept. 24, in Hoover 103 to get feedback from students who are undeclared majors or have an interest in pursuing a major or minor in business.

We want to hear from you on what you’re looking for in a major and an undergraduate program, and what would appeal to you and get you more involved and engaged. What are you looking for in a program that seeks to serve you and give you an outlet for pursuing your passions within the practical application of a business major?

We are doing research for a project in our Consumer Engagement and Social Networking class and could really use your help!

For more information, please contact Lauran Woodruff at lwoodruff08@georgefox.edu.
