Lee
M. Hague Memorial Fund
The Kellogg School of Management is pleased to announce the
creation of the Lee M. Hague Memorial Fund in memory of Kellogg
Alumni Advisory Board (KAAB) member Lee Hague. Lee received
his undergraduate business degree from Northwestern University
in 1968 and his master's degree from Kellogg in 1973. Lee
was an enthusiastic and loyal supporter of the Kellogg School
and served on the KAAB until his recent passing.
The Lee
M. Hague Memorial Fund is a permanent endowment that will
benefit Kellogg students pursuing a specialization in media
management. This gift was established in Lee's honor by Joseph
Field, founder and chairman of Entercom Communications Corp.,
one of the largest radio broadcasters in the United States.
Lee Hague served with distinction for 23 years on the board
of directors of Entercom Communications and was integral in
taking the company public in 1999. The Lee M. Hague Memorial
fund will provide scholarship and project support for students
pursuing careers in the media and entertainment industry.
The faculty of the media management program at Kellogg will
determine the student recipient(s) on a yearly basis.
Lee Hague
served as chairman and CEO of The Aspect Group in Los Angeles
from 1999 until 2003. The Aspect Group is a collection of
six creative teams specializing in integrated marketing solutions
for the entertainment community including film, television,
print, interactive, gaming and DVD.
Reflecting
upon the establishment of the Lee M. Hague Memorial Fund,
Lee's wife, Janis Bingay Hague (Northwestern '69), said: "Our
family feels great pride and joy in Entercom Communication's
establishment of the Lee M. Hague Memorial Fund at Northwestern
University's Kellogg School of Management. It is a true blending
of two institutions that meant a great deal to Lee during
his life. It is a tribute to the legacy of his character that
Kellogg students will be aided in their careers in the media
industry that he loved. We look forward to watching this endowment
grow for the benefit of many worthy candidates."
