History

Isaac Althaus Loos shaped the early beginnings of the college by establishing the School of Political and Social Science, which included degrees in commerce, economics and finance. In 1908, "Commerce" was added to the school name, which then featured nearly 40 courses. In 1921, the College of Commerce was born, enrolling approximately 100 students with 23 faculty members. Two years later, the college joined the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB).[ citation needed ]

In the 1950s, the college was reorganized into six departments and renamed the College of Business Administration. In 1994, the college moved to its present location, the Pappajohn Business Building, at the corner of Clinton and Market Street.[ citation needed ]
