Eleven William Paterson University graduate students pursuing an MBA in the University’s Cotsakos College of Business will have the once-in-a-lifetme opportunity to travel to Nebraska and meet billionaire investor Warren Buffett in person and ask him questions.
The meeting was arranged by Susan Lisovicz ’78, a former CNN business reporter and current adjunct professor in the University’s communication department. The trip is funded through the Alumni Association Annual Fund.
The students will participate in an intimate two-hour question-and-answer session with Buffett at Berkshire Hathaway’s corporate offices, followed by lunch at one of Buffett’s favorite restaurants.
“To spend four hours in Warren Buffett’s company is a very special experience for students about to begin their own career,” says Lisovicz, who has interviewed Buffett several times over the years and continues to keep in touch with him. Lisovicz previously accompanied a group of William Paterson students who met with Buffett in 2012.
The students were selected from a group of MBA students in high academic standing who submitted essays on why they would be interested in attending. They include: Marian Corrigan, Christopher Demarest, Ashley Gallagher, Lina Gu, Patrick Lotorto, Maureen Papaconstantinou. Jason Provenzale, Abdullah Rajput, Jason Vitale, Andrew Wang, and Aysia White.
