The Pamplin School of Business was pleased to welcome Oregon DECA chapter leaders and students to campus this past month. With the fantastic coordination of University of Portland’s Events team and Bon Appetit’s Catering teams – DECA guests had the opportunity to stay overnight on campus at Corrado Hall and experience a bit of the “UP student life.”

The business school Dean, Dr. Michael DeVaughn, provided a “Welcome” presentation and answered various questions from students, while faculty: Dr. Mike Eom, Dr. Min Yu and Dr. Bahram Adrangi served as Judges for student case competitions.

We are thrilled to continue this ongoing partnership and look forward to having more future DECA Pilots on campus!
