The Business School With a Business Plan

In 2006, the Bill Greehey School of Business received a transformational gift from its namesake benefactor, giving legs to the vision present all along. Two years into the new leadership by Dean Tanuja Singh, D.B.A., numbers for service, scholarships, and financial support for faculty and students are stacking up, signaling that the groundwork is laid for great things to come.

6,000 global volunteer hours are just part of the Greehey Scholars’ résumés. The scholars have also met senior Wall Street executives, traveled to Dubai, Belize and the U.K., and been inducted into the “Who’s Who Among Students in American Universities & Colleges.”
50+ senior business leaders from companies such as H-E-B, Rackspace, USAA and Valero Energy Corp. engage St. Mary’s students in high-level dialogues about ethics and corporate social responsibility, thanks to St. Mary’s Greehey Chair of Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility.
St. Mary’s Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program again prepared income taxes for nearby families and small businesses. Nearly 150 volunteers prepared nearly 800 income tax returns resulting in more than $1.6 million in refunds.
57 NuStar awards, outstanding research and teaching stipends, have been given to business faculty members between 2008 and 2010
$2.2 million in scholarships has gone to 46 students in the Greehey Scholars Program
