Success Stories
Many graduates of the Crummer School of Business have gone on to
achieve great distinction in their careers. Here is just a small
sample:
Al Weiss, President, Walt Disney World Resort
"Never underestimate the value of an MBA degree...I pursued
an MBA from Rollins because I knew it would let me do anything I
wanted to, including be the head of a large corporation."
Al Weiss, MBA '81
President, Walt Disney World Resort
B.S. University of Central Florida
M.B.A. Crummer Graduate School, Rollins College
Al fulfilled his goal and now serves as president of the number-one
vacation destination in the world—the Walt Disney World®
Resort. He began his career with Disney in 1972, and he credits
his Rollins MBA with giving him an extra edge to succeed in a world-class
company.
Jimmy Park, Business Analyst, Global Solutions/PCS
"You've been told you need work experience before getting an
MBA. I don't think so. Other MBA programs require several years
of work experience, but the Crummer School's Domestic Consulting
Projects give you that experience by the time you graduate."
Jimmy Park, '98
Business Analyst, Global Solutions/PCS
B.A. University of Florida
M.B.A. Crummer Graduate School, Rollins College
After Jimmy graduated from the EAMBA program, he joined Global
Solution. His success, he states, was due to the fact that Rollins
MBA gave him the necessary tools to flourish in the workplace.
Judy Curry, Vice President & Controller, Tupperware
"The PMBA Program at Rollins met all of my expectations by
allowing me to maintain career and income progression and family
commitments while pursuing my graduate studies."
Judy Curry, '94
Vice President & Controller, Tupperware
B.S. University of Santo Tomas, Philippines
M.B.A. Crummer Graduate School, Rollins College
Judy began her career with Tupperware in 1990 as a Senior Accountant

unique scheduling format at the Crummer School allowed Judy to earn
her graduate business degree while continuing to accept roles of
increasing responsibility at Tupperware.
