ED AND AGNES* ACKLEY<\/strong><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]If I hadn\u2019t gone to the Simon School, I never would\u2019ve had the confidence to start my own company,\u201d says Ed Ackley \u201953, \u201964S (MS). \u201cOur gifts help other students gain that same kind of confidence.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr. Ackley and Agnes Ackley \u201954* have created opportunities for students by making generous annual gifts and longer-term investments at the University. Their charitable remainder unitrusts grow in the University\u2019s endowment, while providing the Ackleys with a stream of income. Ultimately, the unitrusts will become funds that benefit students of the Hajim School of Engineering and Applied Sciences and the School of Arts and Sciences. The couple also has an endowed professorship at the Simon Business School to bolster its world-class entrepreneurship faculty.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf it weren\u2019t for the generosity of others, I wouldn\u2019t have been able to go to college,\u201d says Mrs. Ackley. \u201cWe\u2019re investing in the future of young people, just as others invested in us long ago.\u201d<\/p>\n
