In March 2022, Southern Management was awarded the inaugural Presidential Flagship Award. This new award honors the outstanding commitment of a university partner to the continued success of the university and growth of the Greater College Park ecosystem as an educational, research and business corridor. This prestigious award was given by President Darryll J. Pines to the CEO of Southern Management Companies, Suzanne Hillman, during a celebration at The Hotel at UMD. Eight of our extraordinary students joined the award ceremony and one of them provided remarks on the tremendous impact the program has had on her education and outlook for the future.
