Rogge Dunn, a long-time adjunct professor for the Cox School’s Executive MBA program, announced a gift to support ҽCox today by naming a classroom: the Rogge, Cathy, and Ross Dunn Classroom in the James M. Collins Executive Education Center. Ross Dunn, his son, is an Executive MBA student, who will graduate in May 2021 and the gift is a way to honor that achievement.

"As much as this is a wonderful way to memorialize a graduation, it’s also a wonderful gift to help future Cox School students achieve their educational and career goals," said Senior Associate Dean Bill Dillon. "Through his generosity, Rogge is making a big difference in ensuring the continued quality of the EMBA program and a degree from the Cox School of Business."
