As Burkenroad Reports celebrates its 25th anniversary, Freeman Business looks back at how Peter Ricchiuti built a tiny equity research program covering six “stocks under rocks” into one of the most acclaimed experiential learning programs in the nation.

Freeman School of Business– is a spectacular architectural achievement, but the building’s greatest accomplishment may be in how it fosters innovation in teaching and learning.
