The 2025 Appalachian Research in Business Symposium

Last week, the 2025 Appalachian Research in Business Symposium was held at the Brad D. Smith Center for Business and Innovation.

The Appalachian Research in Business Symposium (ARBS) is a premier annual event that brings together business scholars from six esteemed universities: Appalachian State University, Eastern Kentucky University, East Tennessee State University, Marshall University, Radford University, and Western Carolina University. This symposium provides an invaluable platform for sharing cutting-edge research, exploring contemporary business ideas, and fostering meaningful professional connections across a range of business disciplines.

We are extremely thankful to be the honored host of such an esteemed event, and would like to congratulate our faculty and staff who made this year's ARBS possible.

Lewis County High School Visits the LCOB

Students from Lewis County High School visited campus last Friday and stopped by the Brad D. Smith Center for Business and Innovation to check out our building for a tour and to get some more information on our College! During their visit, they heard from our Associate Dean Doohee Lee, Director of Student Services Lacie Bittinger, and Brad Smith himself! We would like to thank Lewis County High school for their trip down to Marshall, and hope that next time they visit, they will be part of the Herd!
