A Tour of Fisher College of Business
Several friends of mine from my undergraduate college came to visit me over the past weekend. I couldn't wait to showing them the best of Columbus. On top of my have-to-do list was to show them around the beautiful Fisher College of Business campus.
Fisher College of Business is home to our MAcc program. It consists of six major buildings: Gerlach Hall (home to graduate business programs), Schoenbaum Hall (undergraduate), Pfahl (executive education & conference), Mason Hall (computer labs & ample self-study space), Fisher Hall (faculty offices, "the building of teaching"), and the Blackwell Inn and Conference Center (hotel rooms and fancy restaurants). We also have a large courtyard backyard surrounded by Gerlach, Schoenbaum, and Mason Halls. The courtyard is a wonderful place for recruiters and student organizations to reach out to Fisher students.
Going into Gerlach Hall, my friends personally experienced the state-of-the-art facilities at Fisher. On the first floor are Career Management offices and Fisher Graduate Programs offices. On the second floor are some classrooms, computer labs, student lockers, and a student lounge. The student lounge is a great place for students to work in groups and chat with your friends during the lunch hour. On the third floor are many classrooms. These amphitheater-like classrooms are designed to facilitate discussions in class. Every seat in the classroom has its own power and internet connections. Of course, wireless internet is everywhere in the building and throughout the Fisher complex.
Now that you have a good understanding of Fisher College of Business campus, in my future blogs, I will talk about another essential element of Fisher: its people.
