This year’s book authors and their published works include:
Professor of English Casie Hermansson, College of Arts and Sciences, published numerous early childhood books ranging from fantasy stories about magic carpet rides to historical fiction about artisans and apprentices:
Professor of Management Donald Baack, Kelce College of Business, continues to update and refine his scholarship in updated versions of published works, providing students tools for an ever-shifting market and concrete examples that help test their knowledge.
