CONNECTED FOR LIFE...HAPPILY EVER AFTER Darren Schuringa ’93MBA began looking at professional business schools soon after earning his bachelor’s degree from the University of Western Ontario. Born in Canada, Darren wanted a first-class education at a location that would allow him stay proficient as a competitive water-skier. After visiting Rollins’ Crummer Graduate School of Business, he decided there was no better place for him to get his MBA. “I was so impressed with the faculty. I realized right away that professors would take time to teach you as individuals, not just as a class.” Meanwhile, Allison Hug Schuringa ’92 was pursuing her undergraduate degree at Rollins—a huge change to a small-town environment for this New York City girl. “I didn’t know where I wanted to attend college until I saw some literature at my high school about Rollins. Once I saw the campus, I fell in love with Rollins and made my decision immediately to attend school here.” As Allison neared graduation, working hard on earning her political science degree and volunteering at the inaugural Florida Film Festival, she was introduced to Darren, who was in his first year at Crummer. “A Rollins friend of mine, Kim Shearer Pride ’91, met Darren while at Crummer and introduced us,” she explained. A friendship, interlaced with
dating, formed quickly between the two, but graduation was looming for Allison. Just four months after meeting Darren, Allison graduated from Rollins and entered a career in politics, which took her first back to NYC and then on to Madrid. Darren remained behind in Winter Park to finish his MBA studies, then returned to Canada to work for his family’s business. Following several years of keeping in touch via long-distance phone calls, Darren and Allison met for a vacation in the Greek Islands—and the rest is history: Allison moved to Canada shortly thereafter, the couple became engaged two years later, and they returned to the States and settled in NYC, where they married. Allison, now a stay-at-home mom to 2-yearold Sarah, and Darren, a portfolio manager for Estabrook Capital Management, are enjoying married life and love reminiscing about Rollins. “My experience at Crummer was outstanding,” Darren said. “Everyone supported one another. I’m still in touch with professors and classmates.” Added Allison, “We made so many friends at Rollins. More than half the people in our wedding party were friends from Rollins and Crummer. Whenever we talk about that experience, we both start smiling!”—Lynn Penyak
