    The University of Delaware has received a $3 million commitment from alumnus Charles W. (Charlie) Horn, a 1975 alumnus, and his wife, Patricia A. (Patty) Horn.

    The gift will be used to enhance and expand entrepreneurial studies at UD through the creation of the Horn Program in Entrepreneurship, an interdisciplinary program housed in the Alfred Lerner College of Business and Economics.

    Major components of the initiative will be unveiled at a launch celebration to be held Oct. 12 on the UD campus.

    According to Bruce Weber, dean of the Lerner College, the event also will give guests the opportunity to listen to and vote on brief pitches by aspiring student entrepreneurs. The pitches that receive the most votes will receive start-up support and resources worth $1,500. For more information, click on the link below to a story in UDaily.
