Hello, my name is Lon Moeller. I am the Associate Dean for the Undergraduate Program in the Henry B. Tippie College of Business at the University of Iowa. This is my blog. I plan to “blog” (apparently a new-aged way to say “write”) about what is going on in the College of Business for our students, alumni and anyone else who is interested in the College or the University of Iowa. Let’s all hope I have something to say.
Welcome to My Blog. Let’s Hope I Have Something Interesting to Say. | |

Meet the 2012-13 Tippie Senate
We graduated a great group of Tippie student leaders on Sunday – students who led student organizations, raised funds for Tippie Build, volunteered their time and made positive contributions to the Tippie College of Business. With graduation, however, comes opportunities for a new group of student leaders. Our 2012-13 Tippie Senators will be Mike Gillette, Vicky Hernandez, Keane Nguyen, Kelly McClure, Michael Korobov, Sujie Guan, Heidi Goerres, Amy Lovejoy, Vishal Shah, Ned Protexter, Tim Nick and Jarrett McGuigan. Melissa Baker and I look forward to working with Tippie Senate this fall.
Congratulations to our 2012 Tippie Graduates
Over 550 Tippie students participated in Commencement yesterday at Carver Hawkeye Arena. Accounting major Brad Lane did a wonderful job with his remarks. Tippie graduate Thomas A. Kloet, Chief Executive Officer of the TMX Group, was the Commencement speaker. He did a nice job of emphasizing the importance of being open to career changes and the value of constantly learning new things. Jamie Wheeler was recognized with the Delta Sigma Pi Scholarship Key, an award given to the graduating Tippie student with the highest grade point average. President Mason and Dean Curt Hunter shook hands with the graduates as they walked across the stage. Professor Joyce Berg and I read the names. Board of Regent member Robert Downer was part of the platform committee as were Professors Alice Wang, John Solow, Jay Christensen-Szalanski, Gautam Pant, and Erik Lie. Other Tippie faculty served as marshals – Maria Kraimer, Rich McCarty, Cristi Gleason, Joe Sulentic, Tom Walsh, Jeff Hart and Scott Siebert. It was great to see many of the students I had in class at and after the ceremony.
