Special thanks to a diversity advocate
Ellen Balaguer, a champion of DEI efforts at Leeds, established the听Mel and Marcy Balaguer Scholarship听that gives economically and socially disadvantaged students the opportunity to get a high-quality business education. In addition, she has provided funding for programming and activities in support of diverse graduate students, including our new event, Transforming Business: Connecting Diverse Scholars.
Ellen听named the scholarship听for her parents who听endured hardships and sacrifices to send her听(and her brothers)听to college. Now,听she hopes to give the same opportunity to others.听
A retired global managing director at Accenture, she serves as an emeritus chair on听the听Leeds Advisory Board and has earned the Leeds Distinguished Alumni and Service Award in recognition for her service to the school. Visit our website听to听learn about other scholarship opportunities.
