Your gift to the School of Business supports students as they pursue many of the opportunities available to them. This year, they are focused on 5 different areas, and you can also choose to support student scholarships or the Henderson Hall renovation:

  1. Providing a Wall Street Journal subscription for not only the business students but also the entire campus so they can take advantage of a wide range of viewpoints; 
  2. Increasing the amount of scholarships they give to students who are studying on campus and also internationally; 
  3. To provide learning and teaching resources for the data analytics concentration, minor and certificate program;  
  4. Increasing the Dean's Fund for Excellence to be able to "say yes!" to more opportunities; and
  5. Helping business students have a stronger grounding in ethics during their Organization and Management class.
