Just over one month after retiring as the president of the °®°®Ö±²¥, Dr. Judy Genshaft’s legacy is being honored with new street signs bearing her name.
°®°®Ö±²¥ Genshaft Dr. is replacing Maple Dr. It runs between °®°®Ö±²¥ Alumni Dr. and East Fletcher Ave. where several buildings are located, such as the Muma College of Business, C.W. Bill Young Hall and the Campus Recreation Center.
It’s also the future site of the Judy Genshaft Honors College. In May, Genshaft and her husband Steve Greenbaum announced a $20 million donation to fund construction of the five-story building and another $3 million gift to create an endowment for its deanship.
In addition to her generosity, Genshaft left a significant impact on °®°®Ö±²¥. During her
19-year tenure, she helped greatly improve the graduation rate, led °®°®Ö±²¥ to preeminence,
and surpassed a $1 billion fundraising goal among many other accomplishments.
The °®°®Ö±²¥ Facilities Management team will replace eight signs, including three post-mounted
signs and five on traffic signal mast arms. The project is expected to be completed
by the start of the school year.
