Smith )〕 The Terry College was founded as "the School of Commerce" in 1912 by the state’s Board of Regents, making it the first business school in the South.〔 The early years of the school were "fragile" as the program struggled to acquire faculty and funding to serve the several students who had declared their intention to pursue the new Bachelor of Science in Commerce degree.〔 The first such degree was awarded in 1915 to Willis Brazeal Sparks.〔 The school became known as the College of Business Administration from 1940 until 1991, when it was renamed the C. Herman and Mary Virginia Terry College of Business, honoring the late Herman Terry, and his wife, Mary Virginia, who as benefactors have endowed faculty chairs, research fellowships, scholarships, and funded facility upgrades.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=University of Georgia )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Terry College of Business」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
