Smith Offices & Resources: Building the
Community The Smith School has undergone a
transformation and today stands as a
leader for business education driven by
the pulse of a digital world. In 1997 we
recognized that the world was changing,
and that our methods of and means of
teaching tomorrow's business leaders
needed to acknowledge -- and take
advantage of -- those changes. Our
vision was to become the preeminent
school in the world at business
education for the digital economy and we
have done just that. We are continuing
to change, moving from excellence to
greatness with a momentum no one could
have imagined and no one can hold back.
With a clear
vision and common goal, a strong and
dedicated community formed at Smith. In
order to more easily achieve
strategic
priorities, the structural
organization of the departments and
offices has been optimized over time.
