Only a short drive from New York City, the world's financial capital, Lehigh is in a unique position to give its students a world class business education both in and out of the classroom. Students even have the opportunity to travel to such places as the New York Mercantile Exchange, Inc. (NYMEX), which is the world's largest physical commodity futures exchange and the "preeminent" trading forum for energy and precious metals. You can experience open outcry trading along with Lehigh students and their finance professors in these podcasts from a mock trading session.

	Heather Wolfert ’07 explains what Lehigh’s students are learning during their mock trading session at NYMEX.
	Finance professor Jim Greenleaf talks about the competitive nature of Lehigh’s business students and how their Lehigh experience positions them to succeed in the world of international finance.
	Professor Rick Kish discusses the out-of-classroom experience of supply and demand on the floor of the NYMEX.
	Nandu Nayar, the Hans Baer Endowed Chair in International Finance, comments on how students see price setting in action in a NYMEX ring.
