Celebrating 50 years of impact:

Back in April, Western’s College of Business and Economics marked its 50th anniversary with an evening of connection, inspiration, and celebration. Alumni, students, faculty, staff, and community members gathered to reflect on five decades of excellence and look ahead to the future.

The celebration featured inspiring conversations with WWU alumni entrepreneurs Stephen Aarstol (‘96) and Kelly Andrews (‘94), who shared insights from their entrepreneurial journeys and the importance of innovation, leadership, and community.

Congratulations to the College of Business and Economics on this milestone anniversary, and here’s to the next 50 years of preparing the next generation of business leaders!

Behind the speaker, a large projection screen displays the words “Western Washington University Undergraduate” along with additional text about student interest and sustainability. Audience members are visible in the foreground, facing the stage, listening intently.
