Honoring the Impact of COB Dean Sherman

In Summer 2019, Dr. Hugh Sherman announced his intent to step down as dean of Ohio University’s College of Business at the end of the 2019-20 academic year. Due to COVID-19 and its impact on the search process, Sherman stayed onboard, providing leadership to the college and supporting the campus community in these unprecedented times.

Sherman has served as dean and the Corlett Chair of Strategy for the last 13 years. In those 13 years, he has brought the Ohio University College of Business to new heights, invigorated student development programs, and left lasting impacts on the community.

This Campaign Had Matching Funds

Over the course of his career, Sherman inspired countless students, alumni, and contacts with his leadership style. His impact inspired a group of alumni and friends to offer matching gifts. Thanks to the generosity of this group, gifts were matched 1:1 up to $30,000.
