Representatives from Ford Motor Co. and The Ohio State University’s Max M. Fisher College of Business, College of Engineering, and Division of Student Affairs will take part tomorrow (9/17) in an announcement of a major grant to the university, made possible through the Ford Motor Co. Fund:

   Speakers will include Ohio State President William E. Kirwan and Robert L. Rewey Jr., group vice president for marketing, sales and service at Ford in Dearborn, Mich.

   Following the announcement, Rewey will speak to new MBA students about Ford’s acquisition of Jaguar -- the case analysis of which is a cornerstone of the Fisher College’s “Super September Start-Up” program for incoming MBA students. Several 2000-edition Jaguars will make the trip from Dearborn with Ford executives, lending visual impact to the event.

PLEASE NOTE:
Media parking will be available in front of Fisher & Gerlach Halls on Neil Avenue.
