Institute for Real Estate Studies Fall 2011 Board Meeting

The Institute for Real Estate Studies held its Fall Board meeting over the weekend of September 9th and 10th, 2011.  Events commenced with a dinner reception hosted by Dean Jim Thomas Friday evening.  It was followed the next morning by a dynamic networking breakfast where students were given the opportunity to interact with Advisory Board members.  The breakfast was immediately followed by a very lively industry round table discussion and formal board meeting on campus in the Smeal Business Building.  Weekend activities were punctuated with the IRES Annual Tailgate Saturday afternoon prior to the Penn State/ Alabama football game.  This well attended event has become a favorite gather point for all Penn Staters and their families engaged in the real estate profession.
