Awards and Recognition
Howard F. Rudd, Jr. Distinguished Faculty Award for Service Leadership
In 2023, the Howard F. Rudd, Jr. Distinguished Faculty Award for Service Leadership was bestowed on David Wyman, Ph.D., associate professor of entrepreneurship. The annual endowed Rudd award honors the legacy of Dr. Howard F. Rudd, Jr., Dean Emeritus and founding Dean of the School of Business. The prestigious award recognizes outstanding, high-performing business professors who lead in Rudd's spirit and example to advance the mission and global vision of the business school. It is also the highest valued award for faculty at the College of Charleston.
This endowed award is made possible by philanthropic gifts from Anita Zucker, chairperson and CEO of the InterTech Group, and Justin R. McLain, '98, executive chairman, Endeavor, and manager partner, Duart Mull. Both Zucker and McLain are members of the School of Business Board of Governors.
