The Walton College of Business Career Center Company Visit Program is designed to give business majors a connection to their local business community and a unique resource for discussing issues related to their career interests. Participating students interact with business and industry professionals and are exposed to a variety of learning experiences provided by host companies and organizations. This program also provides an excellent opportunity for regional alumni to re-connect with the Walton College of Business and interact with current students.

On Feb. 25, 24 Walton College undergraduate and graduate business students enjoyed their time at Sam's Club visiting with various professionals, including alumni Helio Barbosa and Richard Watkins. The students participated in a company tour and learned about the many business units and how those units are interrelated. The tour ended in the Sam's Club Sensory Lab where students were invited to participate in blind product tastings. Throughout the visit, students also participated in various Q&A sessions with Sam's Club professionals.
