Genevieve Albers Forum
Seattle
University's Albers School of Business and
Economics is pleased to continue the Genevieve
Albers Forum (formally known as the Albers
Business Forum) as part of its community service
efforts to further the partnership of progress
between business and education. Made possible
through the foresight and generosity of the late
Miss Genevieve Albers, daughter of George and
Eva Albers, for whom the school is named, the
Genevieve Albers Forum is designed to bring
renowned business leaders and other public
figures to campus for discussion of important
business topics. |
