Explorer Athletes Join Atlantic 10 Conference in 1995-96

Dr. Lester Barenbaum, interim dean of the School of Business Administration, said that AACSB's recogni- tion makes La Salle much more attractive to both students and prospective business employers, not only regionally, but nationally and internationally.

"We've long been recognized as a practitioner- oriented school with a timely, academically-rich business curriculum," explained Barenbaum. "There's always been a strong emphasis on interpersonal communication and business writing skills. Our Co- op and internship programs reflect well La Salle's solid network with the business community."
