Brad Smith gives $25 mill to COB
- Thread starter Chris McLaughlin
- Start date
I heard it was going to go where they recently announced the baseball stadium would be going. I may have heard incorrectly . . .
Several months ago during a meeting with Dr. Gilbert and Ron area, they mentioned some plans about a new building for the business school on fourth Avenue between 15th and 16th. This might have been the catalyst they were waiting on to make that happen
That makes sense. I know a few years ago Marshall acquired several properties on the corner of 4th Avenue and 15th Street now owns that 1/4 of the block. They demolished several buildings and turned it into a parking lot so it is ready to be built on.
Congratulations to you all! What a generous gift that is going to significantly impact every business student that walks through the new building’s doors. These type of philanthropic acts transform what universities are able to do and the education they can provide. It’s always great to see successful graduates give back to their alma maters.
So I assume the college of business will have its own building while Corbly will continue with various courses and departments having classes there.
