Business Honors Seminar class (BADM 574) is open to juniors and seniors with a major in the Business Administration and Accounting Department. Research and class work prepare students for bi-weekly discussions with senior executives. The seminar format is an integrating process which also helps students form a personal style of management, eclectically based on input from successful business professionals. This input is provided by corporate presidents in personal, informal visits to the seminar.

"Since our speakers are all Thiel graduates, the students begin to appreciate the potential payoff of their Thiel experience."

- Professor David M. Miller, Chairman of the Business Administration and Accounting Department
