Al Golin (BA ’50) chose to attend Roosevelt University because of its inclusive culture, which appealed to him as a young Jewish man seeking his place of belonging. After finding success as one of the pioneering leaders in the PR industry, he showed gratitude to his alma mater by serving on the Board of Trustees for 16 years.
In the last decade of his life, Golin funded the Al Golin Scholarship in Communications at Roosevelt, which has benefited dozens of students from underrepresented backgrounds. His PR firm, Golin, has committed to sustaining his modern legacy at Roosevelt.
