Tyra Banks

#2. Learning options will indeed mushroom for business students and leaders, but it will take prudence and shrewdness to find and utilize the best option.

Warren Bennis

#3. Your peers are people in the business who are going to push you forward. So I think it's one of the reasons that Syracuse students come out truly ready for the industry because we've been rubbing elbows with people who are likeminded and just as 'pushy' or as ready to go as we are.

#16. In this day and age, social media is a huge part of a business, which I actually love. It's a phenomenal platform to share your message, keep others and myself inspired and help keep your students connected to your events. The hardest part is the anonymous ability to say whatever you want.

Kathryn Budig

As a ship on the waters advancing,
The voyage of the soul - not life alone,
Death, many deaths I'll sing.

John Mackey

#22. I had a major in business, and I graduated with a business degree, but I was perhaps the worst student to graduate from that program.
