Michael Weisbecker ’95

MBA - Management

Alpharetta, GA

My favorite Walker College memory is… 
I remember that the professors at Appalachian were so accessible. It felt that everything they did was student-centric. Having graduated from a different undergraduate institution, the professors in the Appalachian MBA program distinguished themselves by being so helpful and always willing to discuss business topics or offer career advice. Specifically, I remember discussing accounting careers with Dr. Peacock. His advice proved to be quite beneficial to my career.

BSBA, Marketing

Portland, Oregon

My favorite Walker College memory is… 
I thought I wanted to major in Engineering and transfer after a few years. I was introduced to the idea of a Business Major by joining Phi Beta Lambda who met Monday evenings at Walker Hall. Several years later I was the NC Phi Beta Lambda President and graduated with a Marketing Degree. It all started with my time Monday nights at Walker Hall and eventually the College of Business.
