“The level and scope of private giving makes the difference between having a “good” business school and one that has potential to become a “great” business school. Whether it is providing scholarships for our hard-working students, supporting our faculty members’ dream initiatives, or providing facilities that enhance our curriculum and learning environment, each and every private dollar that we receive is so very important to our success. At Washburn we are fortunate to have such great support from our business alumni and our partners in the business community. We strive every day to give stakeholders the best return that we can for their invested trust in us.”
- Dr. David Sollars, Dean of the School of Business
