U of Delaware Business School Gifted a Historic $71.5M
Briefly

The University of Delaware has announced a groundbreaking $71.5 million donation from alumni Robert and Kathleen Siegfried. This is the largest single donation in the university's history and will significantly enhance the Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics. The funds will be allocated to create advanced educational facilities and a new Siegfried Institute for Leadership and Free Enterprise, aimed at nurturing future leaders in business. The design process for the new Siegfried Hall is set to begin soon, with construction expected to start within four years.
The Siegfrieds' generosity will significantly advance Lerner's critical mission of preparing the next generation of leaders, change-makers and entrepreneurs to make an impact in the rapidly evolving world of business and economics.
UD plans to put the funding toward a state-of-the-art, student-centric learning space with modern classrooms, research and teaching labs, a student-run cafe, and an auditorium.
