At the University of Oregon's Lundquist College of Business, we are attracting some of the foremost minds in academia.
It is my honor and pleasure to share with you several strategic academic hires, including two endowed chairs. The endowment of a named chair reflects the confidence a donor has in the institution and its academic mission. It also represents a covenant between institution and benefactor: the positions will only be filled by the most accomplished and sought-after educators.
Their accomplishments are many and their passion is evident. Please allow me to introduce four exceptional professors who have chosen to join our dynamic college.
