The November Thanksgiving edition of Simon Says is all about something we're very thankful for here at the Gatton College - our outstanding alumni!

With 27 years of active duty under his belt and the manager of a 70B budget, Scott is an ideal fit for our Executive in Residence program.
The October edition of Simon Says features highlights from the State of the College and the strategic planning process for our next five year plan.
The September edition of Simon Says is all about one of our major initiatives here at the Gatton College - entrepreneurship! This month, not only did we kick off the fifth year of our successful Entrepreneurs Bootcamp program, but we also launched our brand new Entrepreneurship & New Venture Creation concentration in our MBA program.
