has made great strides in building its resources in the past
decade. With the conclusion of a successful $100 million campaign
last year, the college continues to attract and retain the
finest faculty and students. In concert with the university’s
academic plan, the college is committed to continue building
its endowment in five primary areas: 1) faculty recruitment
and retention, 2) innovative teaching and course development,
3) MBA fellowship and program support, 4) leading edge executive
education programs, and 5) undergraduate enrichment programs.
These are vital if the Fisher College is to continue to build
its reputation and value. |
