Sloan Foundation Grants $250,000 to Tuck School

The Tuck School, recipient of a grant of $250,000 from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, has announced that the funds will be used to expand the School's research efforts, develop the curriculum for the M.B.A. degree, and lay the foundations of a possible doctoral program.

The Sloan Foundation has made annual grants of $35,000 to the Tuck School since 1953, making possible the publication of a series of bulletins and assisting many faculty members in writing books and articles. The most recent book written by a Tuck professor with the assistance of a Sloan grant is TheMolly Maguires by Prof. Wayne G. Broehl Jr., published last month by the Harvard University Press.

Dean Hill described the continuing support of the Sloan Foundation as "the most significant factor in all the changes at Tuck School in the past ten years."
