Your Philanthropy and Involvement Changes Lives YOUR IMPACT in 2017-2018 Your philanthropy and involvement changes lives YOUR IMPACT IN 2017-2018 Faculty Support $584,789 Student Study Abroad Support $198,434 Scholarship and Fellowship Support $1,551,752 Scholarship Recipients 353 Fellowship Recipients 263 Total Moore School Endowment $154,203,558 Dear friends: The giving of your time, treasure and talent over the last year has meant the Darla Moore School of Business has enjoyed tremendous growth in academics and research in 2018. Through your generosity, Moore School faculty, staff and students have excelled and gained momentum in many ways: • The Undergraduate Excellence Initiative is in its third year, and students have shown that when they are asked to step up, they do and will meet those higher expectations. Further, the caliber of new freshmen continues to rise, as reflected in higher SAT scores among incoming freshmen (at an average of 1299 for fall 2018, up from 1218 in fall 2015). • In fall 2016, undergraduate students started taking four years of undergraduate business courses, including taking statistics in both their freshmen and sopho- more years. This year, all sophomores will take a more robust final core statistics course that includes programming in R, working with a virtual data lab to manage data in SQL and learning to present that data graphically in Power BI. • Alumni engagement has increased significantly, both in time and giving, reflected in more than 100 students being mentored by Moore School alumni over the last year and more than 2,300 gifts being given. Overall, more than 3,000 alumni responded to opportunities to engage. A greater alumni presence on Moore Connect has been pivotal to this increased engagement. If you are not on this platform, please join the more than 2,400 alumni, faculty and staff at mooreconnect.com. • Executive participation on one of our 10 center boards has grown to more than 150 industry executives. The insights shared by these thought leaders are not only actively strengthening Moore School academics, but they are also better positioning the school to anticipate future needs of both its students and the broader business community. To learn more about why others like you give and what outcomes can be seen from those gifts, please read on. Continue to stay connected over the next year to see more stories such as these unfold, and look also for more information on programming for the Moore School’s centennial, which will be celebrated over 2019 and into 2020. Whatever your level of involvement with our great business school is, please accept my sincerest thanks for your investment. Students and graduates of the Moore School appreciate the time you’ve dedicated, the money you’ve invested here, and the experience and knowledge you’ve shared with students.

    University of South Carolina Moore School of Business RECRUITMENT AND SCHOLARSHIPS/FELLOWSHIPS What programs and initiatives has your school found successful in the recruitment of minority and/or female students? The Moore School of Business is committed to fostering diversity among its graduate (and undergraduate) student population. To that end, we make efforts to recruit minorities and female candidates. Specific to minority recruiting, we purchase lists of minority candidates from the Graduate Management Admissions Search Service throughout the calendar year. We send direct mail and email communications to these candidates to promote awareness about graduate business programs, events and application deadlines. The Moore School recruiting efforts almost always include visits to historically Black colleges/universities (HBSUs) to attend graduate school fairs. Recruiting women to the Moore School of Business has been less of a challenge owing to the fact that the school’s namesake is Ms. Darla Moore who donated more than $75 million to the school. Moore was the first woman to grace the cover of Fortune magazine and has served as a role model for women in business for more than two decades. However, we do have a specific recruiting brochure, Moore Women, that features many of our successful students, alumni and faculty. This brochure is sent to female inquiries and prospects throughout the calendar year. Additionally, we purchase GMASS lists that include women, and send direct mail and email about the Moore School graduate programs to these high-potential female candidates. Please describe any scholarship and/or fellowship opportunities for minority and/or female students attending your school.

  • Greatnessis Within Our Grasp!
    GREATNESS is within our grasp! The Clemson College of Business has set its sights on GREATNESS. Today, the College of Business at Clemson University stands at a critical juncture, poised to become one of the top business schools in the nation. The elements of greatness are present: student demand, a powerful Clemson brand, solid University support and a clear vision. Clearly, it is time to take Clemson’s College of Business to the next level, to make it one of the elite business schools in the country. Strong student demand. Smart people. As our incoming freshmen show time and again, the College of Business is doing an outstanding job of attracting and educating top-quality students. In the fall of 2015, 3,256 applications were received from the entering freshman cohort who listed “pre-business” as their major. Of those, 44 percent or 1,448 applicants were accepted (22 percent yield rate). The mean SAT score for this cohort was 1229 with 37.7 percent in the top 10 percent of their high school graduating class. Our students continue to be intelligent, and our numbers are strong. A powerhouse brand. For eight straight years, Clemson has been ranked by U.S.News & World Report as a top-25 public university. Clemson has consistently built and maintained one of the most valuable brands among all colleges and universities. The 2015-2016 college football season saw national recognition grow and media exposure explode as the football team played in the national championship. But while sports may play on a big stage, the Clemson’s business program has been a part of securing this lofty brand recognition.
