New College of Business Administration Dean Shu Schiller speaks with University of Missouri–St. Louis alum Eric Kendall Banks during a reception last Wednesday night in the E. Desmond and Mary Ann Lee Theater at the Blanche M. Touhill Performing Arts Center. Banks, an attorney who earned his BSBA at UMSL in 1977 and became a Distinguished Alumni Award recipient in 1990, was one of the dozens of alumni, community members and faculty and staff members who attended the event, which served as a chance for the them to meet Schiller, who began her tenure as dean on April 1.
