Don't miss Gies Business Signing Day on Thursday, March 2. Signing Day is the day students declare which major they have chosen to pursue. It’s a big day on our calendar, and we always bring in a special guest to help us celebrate. This year, our College's namesake Larry Gies will join us for the festivities. In 2017, Larry and his wife Beth invested $150 million into the College in an effort to create an immediate and lasting impact for current and future students.
