With varied backgrounds and aspirations, John Miller, Valeria Fournet, and David Gray all found the program to be a transformative experience that equipped them with the skills and confidence to pursue their passions.
An anthropology degree, temporary work, and an encounter with a fraudster all contributed to Susan Curtis’ unconventional path to teaching. In more than two decades at Gies Business, she has touched the lives of thousands of students.
Every year since 1960, the Gies College of Business family has met in Chicago to honor faculty and alumni achievements at the annual Spring Luncheon. We are excited to continue the tradition! The luncheon will recognize the recipients of the Excellence-in-Teaching Awards, the Gies College of Business Appreciation Award, and the Gies College of Business Distinguished Alumnus Award.
The Gies Business Alumni Association and Gies Business invite you to join us for the 2023 Spring Luncheon, featuring keynote speaker Lara Waldrop, Associate Professor and Y.T. Lo Fellow in Electrical and Computer Engineering at The Grainger College of Engineering.
During the program, we will celebrate Gies College of Business and the University of Illinois, and we will recognize distinguished faculty and alumni with the Excellence-in-Teaching Awards, the Gies College of Business Distinguished Alumnus Award, and the Gies College of Business Appreciation Award.
