When multi-million dollar decisions are made in the corporate world, it is no longer viable to rely on your instincts or go by gut feeling. The fact is, it was always dangerous to make such hasty decisions based on emotions or instincts. The difference is, today there is so much more helpful data available. This information, when properly analyzed and utilized, can maximize results and minimize errors.

Data has become one of the premier business tools of the 21st century—in part because of the fact that there are massive tomes of data passing from customer to company every second. Thanks to online shopping and an increasingly global marketplace, the information keeps circulating. Over the past few decades, business leaders in all industries have come to understand and value the field of data analytics (DA) and all that it offers in providing insight into their customers.

The Johnson & Wales University College of Online Education is pleased to announce our summer term dean's list for 2019-2020. Undergraduate students with a GPA of 3.50 or higher achieve dean's list status. Congratulations!

This week, United States Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away at the age of 87. Ginsburg served on the court for 27 years and was the second woman appointed after Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor. Ginsburg’s legacy is that of an iconic feminist, having won five cases in front of the United States Supreme Court involving equal rights for women.
