The fourth annual UW Bothell (un)GALA dinner and auction raised more than $100,000 that is going directly to students through scholarships and programs in the School of Business. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the school\u2019s primary fundraising event started in 2016, it raised just $18,000 in proceeds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Growing support <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

More than 200 people attended the event Sept. 19 at the Columbia Winery in Woodinville. They included most of the 27-member School of Business Advisory Board. Other donors came with 24 corporate sponsors, led by presenting sponsor T-Mobile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Attendees contributed money to student scholarships through the auction of donated dining, travel and other experiences as well as direct \u201craise the paddle\u201d donations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speakers included event chair Tom Sulewski, who leads the Audit Department at the Clark Nuber certified public accounting firm. He\u2019s the advisory board chair-elect; he teaches a course in financial audits at UW Bothell as an adjunct professor; and his firm has hired about 30 UW Bothell graduates over the past decade. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the next UW Bothell students heading for Clark Nuber is Katie Layman. She told the audience that she grew up thinking she wasn\u2019t good at math, but she gained the confidence and skills to major in accounting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Part of the help she received at UW Bothell was a $1,500 scholarship from the School of Business Donor Excellence Fund. It was directly funded by the (un)GALA. Once math-averse, Layman is already an audit associate at Clark Nuber with an offer of a full-time job after she graduates in March. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Creating leaders <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

School of Business Dean Sandeep Krishnamurthy thanked the (un)GALA donors for their commitment in creating exceptional leaders who will shape visionary businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI believe we are teaching both the pragmatic skills that every business needs in its leaders and the theoretical knowledge that prompts critical thinking,\u201d Krishnamurthy told the event attendees. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith that blended philosophy \u2014 and the hands-on workplace experiences so many of you provide our students \u2014 we produce graduates who are in great demand.\u201d <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
