Supporting First Generation Students

Supporting First Generation Students

CMU graduates Dave and Penny Queller (‘91) recently provided a gift to the College of Business Administration to support HUB programming and establish a competitive, one-year leadership development program for first generation business students.

The Queller Leadership Scholars Program is designed to empower first generation business students through leadership and professional development opportunities. In addition to earning a scholarship, the inaugural cohort of Queller Scholars will participate in formal assessments and mentoring programs, learn from successful alumni and leaders, practice critical professional skills, and develop as leaders using the Franklin Covey LeaderU learning platform.

“Penny and I are so proud to work with the College of Business and the HUB to support a first generation scholars program for students of promise,” Dave said. “We hope this program elevates student awareness of their potential within their area of study and leadership opportunities while creating a career framework that maximizes their professional development.”

“We are so excited to see the power of partnership between the HUB and the students to create remarkable CMU alumni of the future,” Penny added.
