Dean Named to China Board, AACSB "Peace" Task Force
Dean H. Fenwick Huss has been named to the Board of Directors of the Georgia China Alliance, a professional association devoted to increasing commerce between the state of Georgia and the People’s Republic of China. Led by Georgia’s business leaders, the Georgia China Alliance builds relationships, opens doors and generates business opportunities with China’s growing economy as it expands its presence in the global market.
In addition, Dean Huss will serve as a member of a new task force formed by the International Board of Directors of the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business International (AASCB). The mission of the new task force, Peace through Commerce, is to plan and execute strategies that will encourage business schools to help faculty, students and others to understand and engage in activities that harness the connection between business, social, political and economic stability, and peace.
Earlier in the year, the Dean served as a panel member at a session on Peace through Commerce at the International Conference and Annual Meeting (ICAM) of AACSB.
