This year we honor Jonathon Nichols, director of Online Programs, for Scholarship.

Jonathon has led the creation of our new MBA Online degree, which recently ranked Top 10 in the West — an extraordinary feat, considering the program had not even graduated its first class of students.

“Jonathon took on what was an extremely nebulous and seemingly overwhelming task of defining, creating, and implementing our first online program here at the David Eccles School of Business,” writes one nominator.  “Not only did he do that with extreme success, but he also established the foundation for providing online courses and programs throughout the school.  Our students will be able to have more flexibility in pursuing their education because of Jonathon’s efforts.”

Thanks to Jonathon, many students who might not have otherwise been able to do so are achieving their scholarship goals.
