MSOL Enrollments Tentatively Down before Start of Fall 2025

Previous posts here at Turner Business have analyzed enrollments trends in the Turner College, particularly those involving the organization's MS program in organizational leadership. With summer semester in the books and the beginning of fall semester 2025 just around the corner, we decided to re-examine enrollment numbers (fall over fall) for the MSOL program. The table below compares tentative fall 2025 enrollments with fall 2024 enrollments. As indicated in the table, MSOL program enrollment is tentatively down 49 students, or 13.9%. In two courses, enrollment is up from 25% to 35.7%, while in three others it is holding steady or marginally higher. The remaining course enrollments are down for now anywhere from about 22% to almost 37%. With two weeks until start of fall 2025, things should improve. Stay connected to Turner Business for updates.

Turner Business Chats with Kevin Hurt about Leadership Research Program

Our 5 September 2025 profile of Turner College management professor Kevin Hurt has been a popular one here at Turner Business . That blog post focused mainly on the  portfolio of leadership research that he has  steadily built up over recent years into one that is unmatched in the Turner College. We recently visited with Hurt to discuss his research endeavors. The transcript of that visit appears below.

It was the latter that inspired me to leave a Fortune 500 corporation and seek...
