On October 8, 2007, Webster University celebrated a truly historical moment in the history of our University.  Ambassador George Herbert Walker III has donated $10 million to Webster University to the School of Business and Technology.  This gift is the first eight figure gift in our history and is transformational in the growth of this institution. We can all feel good about what this gift is and what it represents to us for our future.
