Greetings from the College of Business!
I often see large groups of students and
parents touring the campus for USF's
orientation sessions. They have
anticipation, excitement, and a hint of
nervousness written on their faces.
We're experiencing many of these
feelings as we launch several new
programs this fall, a few of which are
spotlighted in this newsletter. We are
eager to see them come to life and are a
bit nervous until the last seat (or bed,
as in the case of the Bulls Business
Community) is taken.

Board Approves MS in Marketing Degree |
| |
The USF Board of Trustees recently
approved a new MS in Marketing degree,
designed for individuals desiring a
specialized graduate degree instead of a
more broad-based program such as the
MBA. Applications are now being accepted
for this new program, which was approved
in June and will boast its first
students this fall.
