Hough Graduate School of Business
William R. Hough of St. Petersburg, Florida, founder of the investment firm bearing his name and an alumnus of the College’s first MBA class in 1948, donated $30 million to the College in 2007. It was the largest private gift ever received by the University of Florida at that time. The funds established an endowment to support teaching, academic programs, and enhancements in the graduate school of business, and provided a lead gift to construct a new building to house the graduate business programs named after Mr. Hough himself. The gift is also eligible for matching funds from the State of Florida Major Gifts Trust Fund and from the Alec P. Courtelis Facilities Enhancement Challenge Grant Program, potentially increasing the total value of the gift to $50 million.
