Then & Now: Registering for Classes
📋 Then: Picture this, students bundled up outside the School of Business, clipboards in hand, waiting for class sections to open. Registration wasn’t just a task; it was an event. The chatter, the cold air, the anticipation, it was all part of being a Business Badger.
💻 Now: Fast forward to today. Registration happens in seconds, from wherever we are, no lines, no clipboards, just a few clicks and a lot of excitement for what’s ahead.
From paper schedules to digital screens, this moment reminds us how far the School of Business has come since opening its doors in 1900 as one of the nation’s first public business schools.
The tools have changed, but the ambition, curiosity, and community spirit that define Business Badgers? Those remain timeless. #WSB125 #ThenAndNow #BusinessBadger
