Alumnus from Class of 1954 Visits CU
Last August, 86-year-old CU alumnus Akira Horie (MMktg 1954) visited CAS and CU to see what kinds of changes had occurred on campus since his last visit. In 1952, Horie was selected as a member of the first class of Japanese Fulbright scholars to study in the US. After a distinguished career at Mitsubishi Corporation, Horie is enjoying his retirement in Kamakura, Japan. He has long been a staunch CU supporter and has most recently helped CAS establish a summer internship at Mitsubishi, to begin in May.
