On the day of pricing for the bond issue used to finance the construction of Robertson Hall, Chuck Ellingsworth ’97 and Elizabeth Zuelke ’13, lead investment bankers on the bond issue, invited current Rhodes students John Alar ’16, Connor Bishop ’16, Max Zhang ’17, Braxton Carr ’16, Sue Eltayech ’16, Olivia Menick ’15 and Grace Mahood ’16, along with Commerce and Business Professor Andrey Zagorchev to watch the bond sales process. This experience gave the students a rare opportunity to see financial markets at work and serves as an illustration of Rhodes’ commitment to provide an education “beyond the gates.” Three decades of Rhodes students working together on a project that will benefit generations to come. Just another example of the power of the Rhodes network. Front row, from left: Elizabeth Zuelke ’13, Sue Eltayech ’16, Olivia Menick ’15, and Grace Mahood ’16. Back row, from left: Josh McCoy ’08, municipal finance consultant, Chuck Ellingsworth ’97, John Alar ’16, Connor Bishop ’16, Max Zhang ’17, Professor Andrey Zagorchev, Braxton Carr ’16.
