Smith Community Celebrates Rudy Lamone

On April 19, 2012, the University of Maryland community joined at the Robert H. Smith School of Business to celebrate the man known to thousands of friends and fans as: “Rudy.”

The name Rudy Lamone has always been synonymous with brilliant teaching, transformative leadership and a focus on incubating some of the most creative entrepreneurs to ever attend Maryland. His effect on thousands of students cannot be quantified, but his legacy will always be represented through the creations of his students and in the Rudolph P. Lamone Chair for Entrepreneurial Leadership, which was announced at the event. :: READ MORE & SEE PHOTOS ::
