Mines alum Andy Swiger '78 and his wife, Sherry, have made a $1 million endowed gift to support the university’s growing business education programming. A separate $40,000 gift will provide immediate startup funding.
The endowment gift creates the Andy and Sherry Swiger Professorship for Business Excellence. Mines faculty will compete for funding and the prestigious title through a proposal process.
