One final advising session with retiring UNK marketing professor Sri ...

(Photo by Erika Pritchard, UNK Communications) By HEIDI KNAKE UNK Communications KEARNEY – Sri Seshadri wasn’t planning to stay at the University of Nebraska at Kearney for very long. Now, more than three decades after his arrival, the marketing professor in UNK’s College of Business and Technology is preparing to retire as a Loper. “I’m a big-city guy,” Seshadri explained. “I didn’t think I’d be here more than two years, but my faculty mentors inspired me to stay.” Originally from Bangalore, India – with a population of more than 14 million – Seshadri came to the United States to earn a Master of Business Administration with plans to return home and continue his career as a site engineer. With a degree in mechanical engineering and more than a decade of industry experience, teaching wasn’t part of the plan either. That all changed after a single week in the classroom when Seshadri guest lectured for his professor while enrolled in the MBA program. “When my professor returned, he said the students had only positive things to say,” Seshadri said. “They really enjoyed the class.” That experience led to his mentor suggesting he pursue a doctorate. Having only been in the U.S. for six months at that time, his first response was, “What’s a Ph.D.?” After learning professors get summers off, he was convinced. “I was mature enough by then to know that you can make a lot of money in the (engineering) industry, but it often lacks work-life balance,” he said. Seshadri went on to earn his doctorate from the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville and accepted the position at UNK directly after in 1993. Sri Seshadri is pictured with colleagues in the Czech Republic. Over the years, he’s served in multiple roles, including director of the MBA program, faculty and academic adviser for international business and visiting professor in China, South Korea, Bulgaria and Italy. However, his favorite role was outside the classroom. “I love advising,” Seshadri said with a smile. “I love understanding what my students’ strengths are, their passions and what they want to do. Then aligning those to their curriculum.” His desire to help students succeed is what makes him and his classes memorable. Seshadri recalls receiving cards from his students thanking him for his classes. He’s even had a student contact him 10 years after their graduation asking if he’d share an assignment they complete...
