Todd Richter, a 1981 MBA graduate from Indiana University’s Kelley School of Business, has solidified his legacy with a remarkable $5 million estate gift. The Todd Richter Fund is a game-changer for the university, providing robust support to the Graduate Finance Department and the Dean’s office at Kelley.
