CBE community celebrates excellence

Faculty, family and friends filled the Rauch Business Center’s Perella Auditorium in April as more than 100 students in the College of Business and Economics were honored for their academic achievements.

Awards were given in accounting, economics, business information systems, finance, management, marketing and supply chain management. 

Three CBE faculty also were recognized for their outstanding contributions to student success:

  • Teaching Excellence Awards went to Joseph Manzo, professor of practice in accounting, and Hye Seung (Grace) Lee, assistant professor of accounting. Both teach in the CBE core undergraduate curriculum. 
  • The Robert and Christine Staub Award for overall faculty excellence went to Anne-Marie Anderson, a Joseph R. Perella and Amy M. Perella Chair in the Perella Department of Finance.

Katrina A. Zalatan, associate dean and director of Undergraduate Programs in Lehigh’s College of Business and Economics, served as master of ceremonies.
