Open the file, detective, to understand the grand schemes and customs under the College of Business Administration (CBA). Unmasking the truth behind our identity is a step closer to knowing the collegeโ€™s intricate system and student life.

Hidden in the pages youโ€™ll also find some intel about the organizing body behind the University Business Camp: the Business Administration Council (BAC). Glimpse at their engaging projects, powerful advocacies, esteemed members, and all the perks that come with joining BAC!

Once all is clear, prepare to deduce: Will you heed the call to serve the College of Business Administration?
