Eye on UMSL: Celebrating together

College of Business Administration faculty and staff

During the first semester of every school year, the faculty and staff of the College of Business Administration at the University of Missouri–St. Louis gather for a group photo. This year felt extra poignant as faculty and staff expressed their happiness at being back on campus together.

This photograph was taken by UMSL photographer August Jennewein and is the latest to be featured in Eye on UMSL.
