FACULTY FELLOW AND SCHOLAR AWARDS

Faculty awards are bestowed annually to recognize achievement in research

teaching activities. Faculty fellow awards honor tenured faculty, while facult

scholar awards recognize junior faculty. The award can bear the donors nam

be directed to a particular field of interest.

NAMED FACULTY FUNDS

A named, endowed faculty fund provides regular income to underwrite facult

research time and expenses, course and case development, and other related

undertaken by faculty.

GRADUATE FELLOWSHIPS

The universitys mission of excellence in teaching, learning, and research is f

embodied in its graduate students. The primary criteria for admission are supacademic achievement and a potential to contribute to the academic and pro

communities and to society as a whole. The competition is intense, and only

candidates in each school and department are admitted. Once admitted, stud

offered financial support that usually comprises a combination of fellowships

and teaching or research assistantships. Fellowships are key to our ability to

support needed to continue attracting the most talented graduate students.

LOAN FORGIVENESS

To encourage MBA graduates to work in organizations that are located in dev

countries, the GSB offers a loan forgiveness program to reduce the financial i

their educational debt.

Investing in the Best and the BrightestGSB faculty members are the top scholars and teachers in the world in their respective

fields. To recruit, retain, and support our faculty, we need to build the endowment that

supports them.

The GSBs international reputation as a leader in management education is built

on the quality and diversity of our students, whose broad range of experiences and

backgrounds foster a distinctively collaborative GSB community culture. Increasing

competition for the talented students necessitates a larger pool of financial aid

packages as a critical incentive to secure the best students attendance at the GSB.

PROFESSORSHIPS

Endowed professorships are critical to Stanfords ability both to attract and retain top

faculty. They are the highest honor the university can bestow upon current faculty who

have made extraordinary contributions to research and teaching. They also enable

us to offer competitive compensation packages in recruiting scholars who are in high

demand around the country and the world.

Just as the roster of endowed chair holders stands as an honor roll of the most

distinguished faculty members in any generation, the roster of professorship donors

is an elite group of Stanfords most farsighted and generous friends who have made

enduring contributions to the universitys excellence and independence. Donors

may establish professorships in their own names or in the n ames of others whom

they wish to honor, and the chairs will exist in perpetuity. Income from the endowed

gifts pays the faculty members salaries and associated costs. In many cases, the income

also defrays expenses related to the f aculty members work, suc h as library, staff

support, travel, and other research-related expenses.

Supporting World-Class ProgramsOur centers provide the frameworks for teaching the four essential elements of a

managerial mindset. Each center requires both permanent and annual financial support

to further its teaching, research, and outreach goals.

CENTER FOR ENTREPRENEURIAL STUDIES

CENTER FOR SOCIAL INNOVATION

CENTER FOR GLOBAL BUSINESS AND THE ECONOMY

CENTER FOR LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT AND RESEARCH

FOUNDER

A Founder of a center has a distinctive opportunity to be publicly and prominently

associated with a centers high-impact activities, thought leadership, and cutting-edgeresearch across a variety of disciplines. Founders provide support through the

combination of named, endowed funds for faculty fellow/scholar awards associated with

the centers mission and expendable support for the centers activities.

LEAD INVESTOR

Lead Investors provide expendable funds for programmatic and faculty support associated

with a center and have the opportunity to engage with faculty in topical areas of interest.

Expendable funding is essential to provide for the significant growth in the research,

teaching, and community engagement activities of each center.

NAMED CENTER FUNDS

A named, endowed fund for any center provides a permanent legacy from which

regular income is used to underwrite expenses associated with that center, including

faculty teaching and research costs, student activities, and conference support.

Building for the FutureAs we transform the way Stanford students learn management and leadershi

GSB, the space that supports that learning must support our programs.

THE GSB CAMPUS: THE KNIGHT MANAGEMENT CENTER,

CREATING AN ENVIRONMENT OF COLLABORATION

The Stanford campus has a beautiful tradition of small buildings built around c

The GSBs new home will carry this tradition forward. Donors will have the o

to be prominently associated with buildings and other spaces in the new GS

supporting this portion of our campaign.

BUILDINGS

The new campus will be comprised of numerous buildings ranging in size f ro

10,000 to 100,000 square feet.

COURTYARDS AND COMMUNITY SPACES

With our wonderful temperate climate, the space between buildings and clas

will be as active and important as the buildings themselves. These spaces w

be the nexus for alumni weekends and other events.

ACADEMIC SUITES

Our faculty and centers will be housed in a series of smaller suites that will c

offices and conference/seminar rooms. Adjacent to these suites will be share

resources such as administrative support and copy/printer rooms.

CLASSROOMS

A mix of size and style of classrooms will enable the GSB to offer courses to s

groups as small as 15 and as large as 150.

Ways to GiveYou can choose to make a gift to The Stanford Challenge at the

Graduate School of Business through any of the ways described

below. Gifts of every size are welcome and appreciated.

ENDOWED FUNDS

A gift of endowment is a permanent investment in the school,

our students, and our faculty. The income from an endowment

provides us with an ongoing source of f unding that grows over

time; as the invested principal increases, so does the annual

payout. An endowed fund most often for a professorship

or fellowship can recognize the donor or someone the donor

wishes to honor in perpetuity and provides Stanford with a

continuing source of support.

TERM ENDOWMENT

Term endowment funds are spent over a specific period of time

during which they are invested with the universitys endowment

to take advantage of potentially higher investment returns.

These gifts recognize that a valuable set of activities may not

exist in perpetuity, but that a significant investment for a period

of time can help them grow and achieve a measure of stability.

EXPENDABLE FUNDS

Gifts to expendable funds are spent as they come in and may

be made in support of specific programs, research, or people of

the donors choosing.

CAPITAL GIFTS

Gifts made for capital projects support construction and

renovation costs associated with a particular building.

THE BUSINESS SCHOOL FUND

The tradition of annual giving to the Business School Fund

began in 1954. Donors who make a gift each year allow us to

sustain the level of excellence we have attained these gifts

comprise almost 10 percent of our operating budget annually.

When donors increase their annual giving, this provides us

seed capital to be innovative and to implement new programs.

Currently, the Bass Challenge Fund enables donors of unrestrict-

ed gifts to leverage their giving to benefit the GSBs programs.

PLANNED GIVING

Through careful planning, a donor may be able to make a

sizable contribution to the school through a bequest or living

trust; by designating Stanford as the beneficiary of a lifeinsurance policy, IRA, or other retirement plan; or by means

of a life income gift that can provide a donor with considerable

tax savings currently as well as an income for life.
