The Peter J. Tobin College of Business Graduate Reception and CEO Seminar Series got off to a rousing start on Saturday night, Sept. 16, when almost 200 alumni, graduate students, faculty, staff and their guests gathered at the New York Hilton Midtown to hear Chris Concannon ‘92MBA share his insights.
Concannon, the president and COO of CBOE Holdings, was the inaugural speaker for the Series, a feature of the first Tobin Graduate Reception.
Dean Norean R. Sharpe, Ph.D., was pleased with both the turnout and the level of enthusiasm.
“Everyone was asking when the next one will be,” she said.
