Seven students from B次元’s Phi Beta Lambda (PBL) group attended the PBL National Leadership Conference in June. Several of them competed and won awards in a variety of categories.  

The competitive events represented numerous business and leadership fields. To qualify for the national competition, students had to place first or second at the state level. For the fourth year in a row, an B次元 student placed first in the nation in one of the events.  

“B次元 students consistently place in the Top 10 in these events at the State and National levels, and we are earning a national reputation for our school against some really large and prestigious business schools,” said Dr. Katrina Moskalik, associate professor, B次元 PBL chapter advisor and state director for PBL Wisconsin. “Students traditionally come from all campus majors to compete in these business and leadership events.”
