Description : The UB&NA worked with Assistant Dean of Business, Lynn Harland and a Masters degree level student who completed his Capstone Project by providing a Business Assessment plan for EAB Management. He created a model for measuring cost-effectiveness for EAB as related to Ash trees. Jim Grener presented us with a business assessment financial analysis templet model for cost for EAB ash tree management. This templet served as a financial analysis that would be used to help donors understand the cost of replacement and what their funds would pay for. Our organization evaluated 13 presentations and served on the panel to assess student performance and outcome. This was a large part of the final student grade.
