Dr. Evelyn Thrasher, Gordon Ford College of Business
This week on The DeCesare Group Podcast, join Jim DeCesare for his conversation with Dr. Evelyn Thrasher, Dean of WKU’s Gordon Ford College of Business. https://www.wku.edu/business/ In the 2026 U.S. News & World Report Best Graduate Schools rankings, twelve WKU graduate programs landed among the best in the country—including five from the Gordon Ford College of Business. Dr. Thrasher breaks down the recognition and talks about the impact Amy and David Chandler Hall as well as the Living and Learning Communities is having on student success on the hill. She gets into the biggest gap between what students think they need to succeed in business and what matters once they graduate, what leadership really means in today’s business environment and how WKU is making sure students are prepared for how fast business is changing- technology, AI, remote work – all of it.
