Members of UCA and College of Business leadership unveiled the Dr. Conrad Carroll Society annual giving wall today on UCA’s 9th annual Day of Giving. Honored guests in attendance included Dr. Conrad Carroll, his wife Theda, his son, and his daughter in law, there to share in the historical moment.
Educational excellence requires resources, and the Dr. Conrad Carroll Society will provide the UCA College of Business with the resources to invest in its programs and people. This annual giving program will position the college to pursue unique opportunities as fresh possibilities emerge and ensure that the college is positioned to thrive in the years ahead.
“We have built a comprehensive college of business and we are providing our students with a remarkable and powerful education. I want to thank Dr. Carroll for his years of strong leadership and recognize the foundation he helped build for our world-class College of Business,” said College of Business Dean, Dr. Michael Hargis. “This program will help us continue to celebrate his lasting legacy for years to come.”
The Dr. Conrad Carroll Society allows the UCA College of Business to say ‘yes’ —–
Yes to scholarships for exceptional students,
Yes to applied, hands-on learning experiences,
Yes to world-class research and service opportunities, and
Yes to programs that provide transformational experiences for our students and positively impact our community
Those who say yes to the Dr. Conrad Carroll Society will directly impact the College of Business by providing support for people and programs.
