The first-ever Procter & Gamble Leadership Advantage Camp was held at the Fisher College in January. John Pepper, chairman of the executive committee of the board of Procter & Gamble, gave the opening remarks and spoke individually with students who then participated in two days of leadership building activities led by P&G’s top brand managers. Four students subsequently accepted P&G internships for
the summer.

A new synergy is emanating from Schoenbaum Hall, where Fisher College’s undergraduate students now take all but one or two of their business classes. This sense of community led to several new student-initiated events last year, including the Fisher Festival that wrapped up the academic year with fun and refreshments in the courtyard; a well-attended Personal Finance Bootcamp for undergraduates campus-wide, organized by a number of student business organizations in cooperation with other student groups on campus; and a Fisher Pride campaign that fostered community spirit and pride in the new college facilities.

New courses in e-commerce, e-marketing and business plan development provided timely new academic options for undergraduate business students. Undergraduate faculty are also using WebCT to develop technology-supported instruction materials.

John Bates, founder of BIGWORDS.com, was the keynote speaker at the Dean’s Leadership Conference 2000, sponsored annually by the Pace Setters and coordinated by undergraduate students. Richard Saunders, with Richard Saunders International, a leadership and creativity consulting firm which operates the Eureka Ranch in Cincinnati, led the students on an exhilarating exploration of Entrepreneurship in the New Economy.

The Fisher College chapter of Delta Sigma Pi, a professional business fraternity, received the “most improved chapter” award.
