Why I Give Russel Noles Head of Corporate Strategy for TIAA - CREF 
“I made a donation to the MSU Denver School of Business because I am a proponent of business and the free enterprise system and want to continue MSU's tradition of providing great academic programs through the School of Business. I believe it is very important for members of the community to support institutions like MSU Denver, because as an urban institution that educates large numbers of people from all walks of life this is a community based academic institution that helps elevate society as a whole by providing access to a quality college education for all.” “MSU Denver was known for its strong accounting program, which helped me land my first job as a staff accountant with Arthur Andersen & Co. The strong accounting and business curriculum from MSU gave me the basis to pass the CPA exam, and I had all of the tools I needed to start my career and advance it forward, including enrolling in graduate school where I was able to leverage my undergraduate studies in pursuit of an MBA in finance. The practical approach to the subjects I studied at MSU Denver was very enhancing to the textbook materials presented in class. I feel that I received a superior education because of the blending of practical experiences from the professors and their mastery of the subject matter of the classes as presented in the textbooks and related materials.”
