Deepthi Kapila writes in from Tepper -

"These students worked so hard, availed themselves of the opportunity to meet up with the profs and even the business librarian who visits Tepper once a week mentioned how there was a spike in people asking for information related to the case! "

 

The business librarian is a feature at the bschool which I remember was rarely used by many people. She would have office hrs where could go and pick her brain to get more information on our topic of research.

 

Tepper also had several professors taking special time/classes to help the participants. Profs Denise Rousseau, Jefferey Williams, Alan Montgomery, Sunder Kekre and John Mather have gone out of the way to do this for the students. In the past Profs R Ravi, Baohong Sun have been advisors. Faculty support like this is such a fabulous thing and reveals itself in the quality of student submissions which in turn puts in great light. As invisible as their hand looks - the impact they have on the student's outputs is mammoth!
