Congratulations to Dave Wilemon, the Snyder Professor of Innovation Management and Entrepreneruship, who was recently cited as one of the world's top 20 scholars in innovation management by The Journal of Product Innovation Management. The article was based on analysis of the top 14 journals in the field between 1990 and 2004. Wilemon was one of only 23 authors to have published eight or more papers in leading journals.

For a finance major, there may be nothing more exciting and interesting than touring Wall Street -- and the Whitman School gives select students that opportunity every year through the Stuart Frankel & Company NYSE Scholars Program. Earlier this month, a group of undergraduate and MBA students, along with Maurice Harris, assistant professor of finance, visited with several Whitman alumni to gain a better understanding of what careers in finance and on Wall Street entail. The students also had the unique opportunity to tour the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), courtesy of Stuart Frankel & Company.
