However, Franklin didn’t want to be repaid directly; instead he hoped Webb would someday meet an honest man in need of financial help and pass the money on to him. Said Franklin, “This is a trick of mine for doing a deal of good with a little money. I am not rich enough to afford much in good works, and so am obliged to be cunning and make the most of a little.” Jung-Wook Kim talks about careers in entrepreneurship with Steven Miller . Three centuries later, the concept of “paying it forward” is still alive and well in the College of Business. Steven N. Miller, founding partner of Northbrook-based venture capital firm Origin Ventures, is paying it forward by funding several annual scholarships for business students who demonstrate academic success and a zealous passion for entrepreneurship. After graduating from the College of Business in 1987, Miller worked for Quill Corporation, an office products company his father and uncle founded in 1956.

LEED is an internationally recognized green building certification system created by the U.S. Green Building Council. After 4 years of careful implementation, the U.S. Green Building Council acknowledged our efforts with their highest rating of Platinum. The Business Instructional Facility stands as a lasting symbol of the commitment we share and values we adhere to as we take up the challenge of leading business and our communities to sustainable practices. From here we must harness the great energy of Business Illini to build a cleaner, healthier future.

About 10 years ago, Miller began offering the Steven N. Miller Entrepreneurial Scholarships to promising business students. The scholarships, ranging from $3,000 to $5,000, reward full-time, tuition-paying students with a financial boost. This year, the scholarships were awarded to two students who are paying it forward in their own way. Recipient Fraser Kinnear learned about the scholarship from Mark Paik, his friend and co-founder of the U of I chapter of Entrepreneurs Without Borders (EWB), a national organization with more 180 chapters on U.S. campuses. A Chicago native, Steven N. Miller ’87 first visited the Champaign-Urbana EWB’s mission is to help create a more stable and prospercampus in seventh grade to compete in a state science fair hosted at Assembly ous world by addressing basic human needs like clean water, Hall. “I fell in love with campus and I power, sanitation, and education. knew that’s where I wanted to go to college,” recalls Miller. “I wasn’t eligible for other scholarships based on need or merit. But since this was based on entrepreneurial aspirations, there was a smaller pool of eligibility,” shared Kinnear who is using the funds to reduce his college debt. “It was a great honor and I really appreciate it.” Recently, Kinnear traveled with EWB to a small mountain village in Peru to help farmers understand why their businesses were failing. On a return trip, Kinnear and fellow EWP members focused on education and helped the farmers start sustainable enterprises to improve their standard of living. Kinnear received dual Bachelor’s degrees in Finance and Accountancy in May 2009 and is working for accounting firm KPMG in Chicago. At KPMG he hopes to gain the accounting experience, business savvy, and financial resources to one day set out on his own. “My goal is to help entrepreneurs around the world by establishing incubators to support them with financing, consulting, and infrastructure.” For College of Business senior Jung-Wook Kim, the Steven N. Miller Entrepreneurial Scholarship offered an opportunity that was not otherwise available to him. “It’s increasingly difficult for international students to get scholarships,” explained Kim. “Usually, you have to prove financial need. However, to attend an American university, you have to prove you can pay tuition, or you risk losing your VISA. Because this scholarship was based on a student’s entrepreneurial background, I was eligible. It really meant a lot because it proves I have made progress in my activities like Engineers Without Borders and in my education.” Kim will graduate in May 2010 with Bachelor’s degrees in Finance, Accountancy, and Management Science, with a minor in Statistics. “In the future, I hope to be able help people who are less fortunate yet have potential to be entrepreneurs through their physical and mental resources,” shared Kim who helped develop sustainable start-up ventures in Croatia with EWB. Indeed, Ben Franklin would be proud that UI alumni and students are carrying on the tradition he started so long ago. n 1/4/10 9:56 PM A n I ncredible G ift Colonel Tom Purple had just returned from Iraq and was finishing a degree at the U.S. Army War College when he received an email that got his attention. The University of Illinois College of Business was offering scholarships for veterans interested in earning their MBA. Purple, who at the time was the deputy director of human resources for the Illinois National Guard, was considering higher education options that would help him gain additional strategic and leadership skills, and the program looked like a perfect fit. “It was an incredible opportunity to earn a degree from a program that is so highly regarded,” Purple said. He knew it would be rigorous, but with the scholarship award Purple was able to concentrate on the academic challenge rather than the financial one. And, he said, it had significant personal and professional payoffs. “It was personally challenging, especially focusing my military mind in a civilian environment because the problem-solving process and skill set is so different,” he explained. “But I have to say that I learned more on strategic thought and vision through the MBA program than I had in the military, and it’s made a difference in the way I think and the way I do my job.” Maj.

For instance, Mark changed the way I thought. I became continued on page 4 Winter 2009 3 more aware of the financial aspects of my work and the implications to efficiency and productivity. Everything I learned was brand new to me, and if I didn’t understand something I could count on not only the professors but the others on my team who had business, math, and engineering backgrounds to help me unbundle a problem. And sometimes my experience helped them. Everyone was truly valued for what they brought. It was one of the best decisions I ever made, and I couldn’t have done it without the scholarship assistance.” The financial assistance made a big difference to Major David Belfiore, too. But it was the support of the faculty and staff that was especially helpful to the Air Force veteran, who started a new job as a services account manager with General Electric Healthcare the same day that he began his MBA studies. “The way the program was organized, the availability of technology, the accessibility of the professors, and the staff ’s commitment to handling the details with the VA and GI Bill meant I just had to go to school and go to work. They took everything else off my plate, which made things much easier.” Major Matt Burden, who researched all the Chicago-area MBA programs before deciding on Illinois, agrees. “The University’s commitment to veterans is profound,” he said. “Plus, the Illinois experience is so unique that other MBA programs are now trying to mimic it.” Burden credited the program’s emphasis on both theory and practice and the class trip to China with providing an exceptional opportunity that translated into practical, useful knowledge that he could directly apply in his job as senior director of the Shedd Aquarium. For Burden, who wrote The Blog of War and was launching a book tour during the first week of classes, the ability to review lectures via computer and the group support was especially helpful. “There were other life issues that came up in our group,” he said. “One person lost his job, another was going to be sent to Afghanistan, and we all stepped in to help each other manage the demands of the program.” Burden recalled some prophetic words from Larry DeBrock, a professor in the program and now dean of the College, who told them during the first class that they’d likely learn more from their classmates than they would from him. “The professors were great, but Larry was right,” he said. “We learned so much from each other, and that learning and those relationships continue today. Without the IVG and the scholarship, this wouldn’t have been possible for me.” Although this particular program has ended, the opportunities available to veterans to earn a degree from the University have not. “The College and the University continue to provide support to our veterans through the IVG benefit as well as federal benefits through the Post-911 GI Bill,” said Ikenberry. “It’s a mutually beneficial relationship that provides veterans with a world-class education and expands our ranks of talented, committed alumni.” n After World War II, ILLINOIS saw a tremendous influx of veterans seeking degrees in business and other disciplines. 4 Alumni News and Notes A l u mni S po t ligh t G abriella R isa t t i S ix D ay L abor of L ove them across the board in whatever industry If you are like most, when you think you choose.

You learn that competition is healthy but camaraderie is just as important. My shop isn’t just a business; it’s an experience I am giving to people.” Risatti has all the characteristics of a visionary with a sixth sense for taking advantage of what’s at hand and staying one step ahead. When she looked at colleges, she chose the College of Business to follow in the footsteps of her father who received his Ph.D. in Geochemistry from ILLINOIS. “My family lives in Urbana. I wanted an easy transition,” she says, “I was going to the school next door.” In her junior year, she joined the Study Abroad Program and opted for France, adding another language to her repertoire. Deciding to open a bridal salon, she chose a commercial downtown location that she believed to be the future fashion center of New York. Risatti continues to step out of the ordinary. In choosing the bridal gowns, she culls her dresses from young, promising designers who appreciate the visibility and remain loyal. Her shop is also unique, located in the Meatpacking District of New York City on the second floor of a vintage building with tin ceilings. To make customers feel “at home” she serves refreshments in old world tea cups and displays jewelry in an antique armoire. “We don’t attempt to be a Fifth Avenue store,” she says. We’re in a district that’s up and coming, with new restaurants, new condos and off beat shops. Up and coming, like Risatti herself. n Winter 2009 5 A l u mni S po t ligh t G reg R ichar t A n I llinois A dventurer Richart graduated from the School of “The thing about Mickey is that he Business with a degree in accounting in symbolizes hope, optimism and a kind of ’96, passed his CPA and after on-campus inbred spunkiness,” says Greg Richart, in interviews, accepted a position with Arthur an attempt to explain the universal popularity of this icon of audiences world-wide.

I believe there’s a similarity to the Disney organization.

While there’s no doubt that Richart rose quickly though the ranks after his graduation from the College of Business, he downplays his personal achievements and hard work, preferring instead to attribute his success to teamwork. Active in fraternity intramurals from basketball to touch football and ice hockey, Richart says sports taught him the importance of strong interpersonal ties. “Since University days, I have always believed the connections we have with colleagues are what make us succeed.” Proud of being part of a company that thrives on being the doyen of family entertainment, Richart says that of all the beloved galaxy of Disney characters, Mickey Mouse is his favorite. “Just look at his history.” He cites the transformation of Mickey from his introduction during the 1930’s Depression, when he stood for the very American qualities of endurance and optimism, to Mickey’s later role as a scamp in the cartoon Steamboat Willie and finally, to the somewhat exalted position he occupies today as something of a ringmaster to a cast of Disney characters from Donald Duck to Goofy. “Mickey can show us how to adapt and, whatever the circumstances, the importance of connecting with others.” “This phenomenally popular, genial cartoon character that wears shoes, shorts and strange white gloves and has a pet dog named Pluto has always been on the cusp of change,” says Richart. “Mickey has always believed life is an adventure, just as I do.” n 6 Alumni News and Notes 4927 Alumni News_mm.indd 6 1/4/10 9:56 PM (From left) Gregory Northcraft, B.

Cannaday continues in this role today, thirty years later. L earning L egends S u s a n C o h en Ken P err y Once retired, esteemed professors may become emeriti faculty and continue to contribute to the teaching and research missions of the college. These cherished teachers have decades of experience and an uncommon wisdom about the learning process. Susan Cohen, who has taught since 1975, is well known for responding to her students, “The correct answer is, it depends . . .” Her lessons about decision making models often center on an insight that the “answer” depends crucially on how the problem is viewed—what assumptions are made and how confidently numbers are chosen and applied. She says this insight is the same today as it was 30 years ago, however, “the advent of personal computers has allowed us to do real-time analysis that was not possible when I first started teaching. In fact, computing an answer took a lot of work, so we had much less time to spend on the managerially more relevant issue of interpretation. It is much more fun and rewarding to teach the material in the current environment.” Ken Perry also knows that how you think about a problem influences the answer you get. Since 1953 when Ken began as an assistant professor in Accountancy, he has been well known for telling his students “don’t fight the problem” for which he often writes “DFTP” on their papers. “I always get good students,” he says. “Some of them almost try too hard. They should back off and avoid getting so involved in the problem that they make it difficult for themselves. I tell them to go with the flow. My advice was, and is: DFTP” J im Gen t r y Jim Gentry believes in creating powerful learning situations for his finance students through what he calls the Live Case. In the 60s he started teaching College of Business students to prepare for actual visits of a financial officer. “Back then it was basically a guest lecturer followed by a question and answer session,” says Gentry. Now his classes are carefully choreographed to be dynamic fast-paced learning environments for both students and the high level financial officers. “I know when to jump into the discussion and create a powerful teaching moment.” In December, a former student, Richard Jones ’73 emailed Gentry thirty-six years after graduating to ask for his advice with a comment, “I would just like to say that your class and teaching style was the best I experienced during my four years at U of I…” 10 A l u m n i N e w s a n d N o t e s A ro u nd t he C ollege (From left) Charles Kolstad who shared the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize with former U.S. Vice President Al Gore sits with Finance Professor Don Fullerton (former deputy assistant secretary of the U.S. Treasury Department) and Nathaniel Keohane, director of economic policy and analysis for the Environmental Defense Fund at a forum sponsored by the College of Business Center for Business and Public Policy.

What a great question, and the fact is, only approximately 3% of the College of Business’s budget comes from the State. The remainder of our budget is funded entirely through tuition dollars and private support. You might also be surprised to learn that no State dollars were used to construct our new Business Instructional Facility! In fact, our loyal alumni and friends, along with the support from our corporate partners and the Student Sustainability Committee, helped us to make the reality of a new building come true. The doors to the facility have been open now for over a year, and the students are utilizing every dollar you have given. Gifts help name classrooms, provide scholarships, and directly support the Dean’s unrestricted fund. State finances are further limited this year, therefore, your gift to the College will ensure that every student will continue to receive the best educational experience possible—from Business 101 to graduation. Thank you for your generosity and support! Best Regards, Tina Howard Assistant Dean of Development The College of Business challenges any alumnus who has never before contributed to the College to donate. Every gift is put to good use, expanding opportunities for students to learn and gain advantages that set them apart and enable them to change the world in business.
