Fordham Graduate School of Business Update
In August 2006, Fordham Graduate School of Business hired a new dean. Dr. Howard P. Tuckman came to Lincoln Center from Rutgers Business School with big ideas for raising the visibility of Fordham Business and for creating a unique identity to enhance the value of our degree. As he starts his second year, we can reflect on past activities and his vision for the school.
