The Home of the Walton College Graduate School of Business

I think we are very lucky in the Graduate School of Business (GSB) at the Walton College. We have an amazing new building, Walker Hall. The GSB moved in July of 2007. Classes were first taught in August of 2008. The building's architects are from Little Rock, AR and Boston, MA.

The GSB lives on the third floor of Walker Hall along with the state-of-the-art Global Financial Markets Center, managed by the Garrison Financial Institute. This Center supports experiential learning and student-managed funds of over $12 million. The high-tech facility provides access to global financial market information that rivals other top business schools as well as Wall Street firms.

The fourth floor is the graduate student floor. There are two classrooms and 12 small group rooms on this level that are specifically reserved for graduate students only.

This building is truly awe-inspiring. Check it out here: http://waltoncollege.uark.edu/walkerhall/default.asp.
