The college of business and economics (CoBE) has seen dramatic change in the last few decades.
Teleprompters, green screens and smart boards have replaced typewritters and main frames. The reputation of the college has led to a record enrollment.
After considering a student body request to view the big picture, the College of Business and Economics hosted its first State of the College Address last Wednesday.
