Dillard University

Juneteenth marks a day of celebrating the resilience of our ancestors and the ongoing fight for justice and equity.

At Dillard University, we honor the legacy of those who came before us by promoting progress and purpose amongst our DU community and beyond.

Join us in congratulating Trustee Orim Graves for receiving the Maynard Jackson Award from the National Association of Securities Professionals.

Trustee Graves has served as Chair of Dillard University's Investment Committee for over a decade. During that time, our endowment has doubled.

Thanks to Trustee Graves' astute allocation strategies, the endowment has outperformed many Ivy League institutions in recent years, placing it in the top 10 of HBCU endowments.

The University owes Trustee Graves a deep debt of gratitude. Congratulations Trustee Orim Graves!
