Why an M.B.A. / SJU Tobin Dean / Bloomberg



This is not good publicity for St. John's. I wonder what made this get into Court, this is something that definitely should have been resolved short of a lawsuit.

I saw this. I'm not sure anyone really cares about this. I worked at a large well known facility in the mid to late 80s, and they solicited a $10 million donation to put a name on a pavillion. 500K seems like a small amount even then. I guess the court would have to resolve whether the name was promised in perpetuity, and if doing major renovations would allow them to rename the building. It appears that Bent made a one time donation, and unlike many of our large donors, wasn't closely associated with the school recently at least. The school says he declined to participate in the fundraising for the renovation of the building, Although immaterial tothe suit, if he did donate, they'd likely have kept the name on the building.

She gets a lot of interviews in very good magazines. Good for her.

I wonder when the masters degree in entrepreneurship and innovation and the other one in Global management kicks in?
