On October 5th, Janet Rilling, CFA, senior portfolio manager for
the Wells Capital Management Fixed Income team, presented in Dr. David Krause's Fixed
Income class at Marquette University.
Dr. Krause commented, "Janet Rilling is
one of the strongest outside speakers we bring to campus each year. She always does a
great job in the classroom because she provides excellent content. Janet has
the experience to provide the students with practical real world examples of the content we are covering. I've
told her before that she would be an outstanding instructor - she connects well with
the students."

Dr. Krause continued, "When Janet talks about credit analysis
during her visit to campus, she is always able to provide examples of current
credit research that she and her team are involved with. She does such a strong
job in the classroom that she allows me the opportunity to move ahead in the course
syllabus."
Janet Rilling answers student quesitons |
"Her presentation on credit analysis is timely for the students as
they will be tackling their own fixed income credit analysis project later this semester.
Janet was also able to talk about the current macro-economic environment and
answered the students' questions after class about credit research, interest rates, Federal Reserve policy and other topics. I know she is among the most impressive speakers the
students have seen on campus recently. We are thankful she was able to
visit us again."
