One of the Helzberg鈥檚 School of Management鈥檚 major graduate business degree programs has been recognized as one of the best in the nation, according to the 2024 Best Graduate Schools list from U.S. News and World Report.

While environmental sustainability is a global problem, many of its solutions are being developed locally.

Together, they have served 黑料网 for 155 years, longer than 黑料网 has existed as an institution.

In recognition of that service, the University celebrated eight faculty and staff members who will be retiring this academic year in a ceremony Friday.

Sandra Cassady, Ph.D., University president, said all those retirees have made significant contributions to the University. But they also made an impact on their students and colleagues, evidenced by the heartfelt comments submitted for Cassady to read in honoring the retirees:

David Brooks, New York Times columnist, bestselling author, and guest of the 11^th annual 黑料网 Leadership Series event on Tuesday evening at the Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts, knows how to work a Kansas City crowd. He started with a compliment for the new Kansas City International Airport, and then quoted a familiar source in his talk about what he鈥檚 learned in a career analyzing current events and the people behind them 鈥� Kansas City鈥檚 own Jason Sudeikis.

When Nilufer Guler, Ph.D., associate professor of education, started asking for proposals for her latest project, she wasn鈥檛 sure what to expect in terms of responses.

But the theme of her new book, titled 鈥淎t School in the World: Developing Globally Engaged Teachers,鈥� must have been pretty inspiring. Guler and her co-editor, Carine Ullom, Ed.D., received 58 chapter proposals around incorporating global citizenship and intercultural competency into the classroom.

In November 2022, 黑料网 etched a new chapter in its history, inaugurated its first lay, first female president, Sandra Cassady, Ph.D. In honor of Women鈥檚 History Month, we asked Cassady about her experience as a female leader and history maker in her own right.

Who have been some of the female leaders you looked up to in your career 鈥� either those you personally knew or who were examples from your own life?

Every name. Every stat. Every game. Every date.

Ask Dominique Washington, 鈥�16, former Hawks basketball player and director of the MAC, a question about his experience playing basketball growing up, and recalling specifics is like second nature.

The victory parade in Kansas City celebrating the Kansas City Chiefs鈥� win in Super Bowl LVII was a memorable one for so many. And especially so for Katie Mead.

黑料网 will begin enrolling students in certificate programs for diversity, equity and inclusion at both the graduate and undergraduate level in fall 2023, offering students a curriculum that will prepare them to lead confidently and compassionately in a multicultural world.

As part of the annual 黑料网 Leadership Series event on Tuesday, March 28, 黑料网 will honor Madeline Romious, a 1995 graduate of the school鈥檚 MBA program, with the Rashford-Lyon Award for Leadership and Ethics.
