Upcoming Alumni Events

(Orlando) School of Business Table for 10

The School of Business wants you at the table. Literally. Biz Deac alumni are invited to Table for 10: an exclusive, small-group dinner designed to bring alumni together in a way weve never done before. Hosted by Interim Dean for the School of Business, Dr. Norma Montague, this gathering in Orlando is intentionally small to keep the conversation big. No program, no podiums – just business alumni sharing a warm meal and meaningful dialogue. Dinner includes a salad, choice of entree, beverage and dessert for a subsidized registration fee of $30. To keep this a true ‘Table for 10’ concept, we are limiting the reservation to nine alumni [plus our host] and are unable to accommodate guests. We hope you will join us at the table!
