Winona State University’s College of Business will host Alumni Panel of Professionals as part of Business Week and the COB’s theme, “Create Your More,” from 7 to 8 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 3, in Stark Auditorium, room 103, in Stark Hall.
The Alumni Panel allows students to make connections with the alumni, hear their career paths and find out what the alumni wished they would have done when they were in school, College of Business Liaison, Charlie Opatz said.
The Alumni Panel of Professionals will consist of four WSU alumni guest speakers. The speakers will be Mary Gordon, Bill Drazkowski, Natalie Koch and Brandon Ritter.
Mary Gordon is the Director of Marketing at Merchant’s Bank. Gordon graduated WSU in 1986 with a degree in Business Administration and Psychology.
