SPPD Receives $10 Million Gift
The funds will establish the Judith and John Bedrosian Center on
Governance and the Public Enterprise, examining the nature of
democratic governance and policymaking.
Judith and John Bedrosian's $10 million gift to the USC School of
Policy, Planning, and Development is the largest received by SPPD and
either of its predecessor schools.
By Elaine Lapriore
Judith and John Bedrosian have given $10 million to the USC School of
Policy, Planning, and Development to found a new center to study
governance.
The Judith and John Bedrosian Center on Governance and the Public
Enterprise will focus on the nature of democratic governance,
policymaking and management of the public enterprise. Led by the
as-yet unnamed holder of the Bedrosian Chair in Governance - also
established by the gift - the center will be fully operational for the
2005-2006 school year.
John Bedrosian, a founding member of the USC School of Policy,
Planning, and Development's board of councilors, has served as the
board's chair for the past five years. The gift from him and his wife
is the largest received by SPPD and either of its predecessor schools.
"This generous gift by John and Judy Bedrosian is a measure of their
commitment to ensuring that the best minds and best ideas be assessed
and amplified as a central mission of SPPD and our university," Dean
Daniel Mazmanian said.
