Mendoza Business Magazine - The Adam Smith Professor

Every fall, Otteson watches his undergrad students file into Mendoza room 203 for the first class meeting of his seminar: Economic Sins. Like clockwork, as they go around in a circle introducing themselves, Otteson said the students “half-apologize” for wanting to succeed in business. The implication? Wanting to make money in the private sector is greedy.

Learning by Doing

In the 20 years that Len Charney taught at the BAC and served as Dean of Practice, he never once came to class and lectured. "You ask questions and then you wait for the lightbulbs to go off in students' minds," he said of his teaching philosophy. "What you teach should always be based on what students want to learn."

The Dream Machine

See how Hofstra is helping aspiring entrepreneurs turn their ideas into reality. “Entrepreneurship isn’t something I set out to do,” Mike Seiman admitted. “It’s something I fell into.

In his life and work, John Stratton has always liked being fast. Fast at piecing together logic puzzles as a kid in small-town Virginia. Fast with the fry baskets in his first job at the local McDonald’s. And a builder of fast things—from rockets to computer software—in high school and college.

Finding the Right Recipe - Notre Dame Business Mendoza College of Business

As an undergraduate student majoring in IT Management, Cam Kormylo (BBA ‘19) spent plenty of time asking for advice in professors’ offices on the third floor of the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business.
