Real Estate Students Attend Los Angeles Conference

The Center for Real Estate sent 10 second-year real estate MBA students to the Urban Land Institute's fall meeting in Los Angeles in November. The students networked with students from other universities, industry professionals and UW-Madison alumni. They represented the university at the University Pavilion, where top real estate programs had booths and displays. The Center's Academic Director Tim Riddiough and Executive Director Mike Mihelbergel attended, as did Professors Kerry Vandell and Jim Shilling of the Real Estate Department. Students were able to sit in on a high-level discussion among some of the top retail executives in the industry. The Wisconsin Real Estate Alumni Association hosted a welcome reception at the conference.
