Diverse undergraduate backgrounds characterize the student population. Recent classes have included students with degrees ranging from art to zoology. Effecting a certain level of homogeneous capability in the underlying business and accounting disciplines is the function of the first semester. This goal is achieved through a series of basic beginning courses. The first semester is tailored to meet the needs of students based on their background.
