Last summer, the Quinlan School of Business at Loyola celebrated the opening of the Schreiber Center — its newest hub for business education. The school was recently awarded a Gold Award in the 31st Annual Educational Advertising Awards for an ad that celebrated the opening of the new complex.
The Schreiber Center is located less than a mile from Chicago’s Loop and two blocks from the Magnificent Mile. The Center houses Loyola’s Family Business Center, Center for Risk Management and its Supply and Value Chain Center in addition to hosting undergraduate, graduate and executive-education business classes.
The building’s a central, 10-story atrium serves as a networking point on each floor and allowing air and light into the building’s core. The atrium brings to life the building’s primary design philosophies of community, connectivity, and transparency. The Center is also sustainable and is pursuing a Silver LEED certification for its innovative design.
The construction of the Center was made possible by a sponsoring gift made to Loyola by John Schreiber, a Quinlan graduate, and his wife Kathy. The gift is dedicated to F. Virgil Boyd and Raymond C. Baumhart, S.J, both of whom provided inspiration and guidance to Mr. Schreiber and enhanced both his business education and career after Loyola
The Educational Advertising Awards is the largest educational advertising awards competition in the country.
