[BusinessGrad] Congrats CFA Research Challenge Team

[Yerkes, Rusty]

Congrats to the Samford Brock School of Business CFA Research Challenge Team!

Due to an outstanding Wall Street quality written research report on Delta Airlines, they have advanced to the oral presentation round of the competition.

Team members will travel to Georgia State University in Atlanta next weekend to compete with universities from Alabama, Georgia, and South Carolina to move on to the Americas final in Seattle, WA and global finals in Prague, CR.

Please high five team members Ivan Truss, Kay Caldwell, Julia Swett, and Ryan Whitlock if you see them and wish them well in Atlanta.

Thanks to Samford graduate Mr. Zach Turnage, CFA of Harbert Investment Management<http://www.harbert.net/> for providing excellent industry mentorship to the team.
