If all goes as planned Wichita State University could see a new business school building open for use in a year and a half.

The timeline and fundraising effort for the new Barton School of Business building on the WSU innovation campus was one of many topics I discussed with Dr. Anand Desai and Paul Allen in episode 10 of the BizTalk with Bill Roy podcast. Desai is the dean of the Barton School of Business. Allen is the chair of the WSU Foundation and chief executive at Allen, Gibbs and Houlik LC.
