Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management
The Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management is the graduate business school in the SC Johnson College of Business at Cornell University, a private Ivy League university located in Ithaca, New York. It was founded in 1946 and renamed in 1984 after Samuel Curtis Johnson, founder of S.C. Johnson & Son, following his family's $20 million endowment gift to the school in his honor—at the time, the largest gift to any business school in the world.
Sage Hall, home of the Johnson School
Seeds for a business school at Cornell were first planted by university co-founder Ezra Cornell, himself a successful farmer and businessman—a co-founder of Western Union.
Sage Hall has housed Johnson since 1998.
The Boas Trading Room is used by students for training, for management of student-run funds, and for hosting the annual MBA Stock Pitch Challenge.
Sage Hall was built in 1875 at Cornell University's Ithaca, New York campus. Originally designed as a residential building, it currently houses the Johnson Graduate School of Management.
