Last spring, Bentley honored a special group of supporters as Great Benefactors. The designation, established during the centennial, recognizes alumni, parents and friends who have made gift commitments totaling $1 million or more to the university. The group’s 35 inaugural members and their families exemplify the spirit of the school’s earliest leaders.

Having traveled far and wide during the centennial year, President Gloria Larson praised members of the Bentley community as truly exceptional.

“That is especially true of the Great Benefactors,” she says. “Their longstanding loyalty and generosity have helped make Bentley the top-tier business school we are today. And they will be an inspiration to those who follow and look to shape Bentley’s next hundred years.”
