Holy Cross Business Office

Holy Cross Business Office Major in ANYTHING & Succeed in BUSINESS. All programs are offered on a non-credit, co-curricular basis.

The Ciocca Center for Business, Ethics, and Society prepares students for business careers after Holy Cross by exploring multiple pathways for students interested in business. A liberal arts education is most valuable in today’s world when students have opportunities to connect their classroom learning to real-world environments and problems.

Laylah Espaillat ’28, a sociology major and Business Fundamentals certificate student, turned a site visit to Polar Beverages into an unexpected internship.

By staying curious, asking thoughtful questions, and building genuine connections, she left with more than a behind-the-scenes look at the supply chain. She opened the door to a professional opportunity.

Celebrating the memory, contributions, and lasting impact of Julie Kreymborg ’25.

The College dedicates this cherry blossom tree in her honor, a living tribute that will continue to grow, flourish, and inspire, just as she did. Visit the tree beside the steps of the Dinand Library.

Julie also became the first Holy Cross student to earn a posthumous degree.

Forever remembered, deeply missed, and always part of our community 💜

15 students recently explored how Python and AI tools can help make sense of large datasets.

Led by Beau Lescott ’95, Founder of Adaptive Portfolio Technologies, students jumped into Google Colab and experimented with Gemini’s AI features to support analysis. A key takeaway was learning when it’s time to level up from Excel to Python for larger, more complex data sets.

Thanks to Larry Doyle ’83 who led our Banking & Ethics Workshop and pushed students to think about what responsible banking looks like in practice.

The group discussed how to evaluate risk and opportunity, make tough calls without compromising principles, and lead in a way that shapes a strong culture.

His advice for students: “Be a sponge and don’t be afraid to take risks.”

The future of finance belongs to the curious.

In the last Ciocca Insights event, Roy Vella ’90 emphasized that in a world driven by AI, curiosity is the #1 trait employers look for.

Join the Finance Club on Mon., Apr. 20 @ 7pm for another engaging fireside chat with Terry Waters ’86 and Peter George ’81, both experienced CEOs. They will provide students with valuable context about the application process making it engaging, practical, and actionable.
