The Department of Management celebrated the accomplishments of two specific teams of students this past year. First, we had a team attend a Case Competition hosted as part of the Society for Advancement of Management International Business Conference. The team, consisting of Teresa Wolf, Mychael McKay, Shannon Casey, and Eric Denham, placed 2nd in the Written Case Competition. Additionally, Teresa Wolf placed 3rd in the Extemporaneous Speech Competition.

Our students were assigned to a case entitled “Innovating Healthcare: Is AHCN- America's Care Model Scalable?” In total, there were 25 teams, several of which included MBA students. Our students were part of a division consisting 10 teams. The judges commended our students for their excellent analysis and understanding of the core problem in the case. 

Next, Frostburg SHRM placed 1st for its “Hidden Disabilities in the Workplace” presentation at the Virginia Society For Human Resource Management (SHRM) case competition in Richmond, Va. 

The competition was held during the first night of the conference, and the first place prize of $500 was presented in front of the 800 conference attendees. The Frostburg SHRM winning team members were Eric Denham, Shannon Casey, Nakya Pack, and Teresa Wolf.
