Abstract

This paper discusses the development of a novel student-driven campus organization known as TeamBTE. The mission of TeamBTE is to provide an electronic communications vehicle and supporting infrastructure through which students, faculty, administrators, alumni and others interested in business education at the university level can interact on issues of mutual interest. As of the date of the May 2002 IRMA Conference, TeamBTE will have been in full operation for approximately one academic year (two semesters). Feedback on TeamBTE and its official electronic communications publication, E-BITS, indicates that TeamBTE has become recognized as a preferred source of information relating to the Business Technology (BTE) program at Miami University for both on-campus and off-campus individuals. The success of the concept is allowing TeamBTE to become a major driving force in the development of an online, university-level distance education program in Business Technology.
