the development of the new Master of Science in Finance program. He points to the considerable time both he and Brown spent in the business world. They both stress pragmatism. It informs the way they teach, and it underscores the value they place in putting students in situations that focus on real-world business and finance issues. “As much as we can simulate reality, then our students will have an edge,” Boeh said. “So the question is: What can we do to simulate reality?” “One of the lessons
