DRSS Economics class visits the Raj Soin Trade Room at Wright State University

Yesterday, students in Mr. Grieve's Economics class visited the Wright State University Raj Soin Trade Room. 

The high school juniors were invited by Dr. Li, Dean of the College of Business, to learn about careers in business and finance and see the state-of-the-art trade room.  Students were able to see the Bloomberg Launchpad program as well. 

Students enjoyed a tour of the campus and lunch.   DRSS appreciates the continued support from Wright State  for allowing our students to see real-world applications and learn about future careers.
