Stevie Mitchell, a senior in Marquette Business double majoring in finance and information systems, was named to the 2025 Poets&Quants Best and Brightest Business Majors list. The list honors the 100 most accomplished senior undergraduate business majors in the country, as determined by a Poets&Quants selection committee.
The list honors undergraduate students who excel in the classroom, extracurricular activities and service. This is the first time that a Marquette student has ever qualified for the list in its 10 years of publication.
Mitchell was a multiyear starter on the Marquette men’s basketball team and a three-time BIG EAST All-Academic Team honoree. He won the BIG EAST Scholar Athlete of the Year in 2025 and the Outstanding Senior in Information Systems award from Marquette Business. Mitchell has held leadership positions with the NCAA, Marquette Athletics’ Board of Trustees Committee and the Student Athlete Advisory Council.
In addition to his leadership positions, Mitchell has extensive volunteer experience. He has devoted his time to the Wisconsin Adaptive Sports Association, the Salvation Army and SHARP Literacy as part of its “Reading with the Golden Eagles” program, among several other causes.
Dr. Terence Ow, professor of information systems, analytics and supply chain management and WIPFLI Fellow in AI, wrote Mitchell’s recommendation and said the following:
“Stevie pays rigorous attention to details to solve problems in programming; as an example, he put in copious amounts of work analyzing his opponents’ tendencies, which allowed him to create turnovers for his team. His classmates at Marquette marvel at his commitment and excellence in coursework.”
Mitchell will graduate in Spring of 2025.
