Fund the future of the Warsaw Sports Business Center

Time flies!  It’s been 30 years since the Warsaw Sports Business Center began as the vision of James H. Warsaw.  Warsaw’s brainchild was to create the first sports marketing program housed in a business school and leverage the breadth of a business degree as a competitive advantage.  Even as similar programs launch across the country, the UO’s program can provide students with a better immersive learning experience and access to a bigger global network of alumni in the sports industry. 

 

Warsaw students are front, center, and behind the scenes of the sports moments that matter.  Whether it was the World Track and Field Championships at Hayward Field, the Masters at Augusta or MLB All-Star game in Seattle, our undergrads and MBAs helped bring those events to life.  They partnered with industry leaders like Fox Sports and reimagined how sports will be consumed in the future.  And they learned from the who’s who in the industry as we have hosted speakers in Eugene, and during our industry deep dives to Boston, New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, London and Paris. 

 

The next chapter is ready to be written, and we need your support to ensure that we continue to not only provide best-in-class opportunities for our students but to make those opportunities accessible.  

 

Please help us ensure that all students have a great experience by donating to support: 

  • Graduate student workers - Graduate students benefit greatly by working directly with our alumni on behalf of the Center, and we can accomplish significantly more of our plans with their help.
  • Warsaw Sports Business Club - WSBC is the largest undergraduate club on campus, and we want to expand its programming.  As a self-funded club, having additional funding will provide opportunities to engage more students.
  • Industry Experiences - We can underwrite costs so that no student has to pass up on opportunity for an internship or travel that could be the key to their career path.
  • Reputation building - With the resources for proper PR support for the program, we can let the world know about all our amazing programs!


The Warsaw Center family is what sets our program apart, and that has been built by those who came before us and have given generously in the past.  No gift is too small.

We look forward to showing you what the next generation of industry leaders are doing as the year goes on.
