Alumni Hall of Fame

Hall of Fame

The UConn School of Business Hall of Fame was established in 1993 to recognize some of the more than 40,000 School of Business alumni who have achieved outstanding success in business while making a tremendous difference to their profession and community.  Many also choose to give back to UConn, helping us to sustain and expand our success, through philanthropy, mentoring and teaching the next generation of UConn’s business students. To date, we’ve honored more than 100 alumni who have brought extraordinary pride to our entire UConn family.
