History
The Carlson School of Management was founded in 1919 in response to requests from business people in the Twin Cities to establish a business school at the University of Minnesota. From the beginning, members of the business community worked in partnership with the school’s faculty and students by providing classroom speakers, internships, employment opportunities, and scholarships . In that first year, 14 faculty members instructed 88 students. Since then, the school has undergone five name changes and has been housed in five locations. Today, the Carlson School has nearly 5,000 students, 50,000 alumni, six degree programs, 106 tenure-track and 28 full-time instructional faculty members.

I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
