- The Fogleman Endowment for CSU, Chico DI. No matter the subject, Sam Fogleman (Business Administration, ’85) and Laura Fogleman (Dietetics, Home Economics, ’85) believe education means opportunity—to learn, understand, and improve the world. After supporting a scholarship for accounting students for several years, they decided to create an endowment for nutrition and food science majors who share Laura’s passion. Financial hurdles, they agree, should never stand in the way of students’ opportunities to pursue internships and, ultimately, their dreams.
