Mitchell Lecture Series

The Patricia W. Mitchell Trusts provided a $5 million endowment to Michigan Ross in 2019 to establish the Mitchell Program for Business Ethics and Communications and honor the legacy of John H. Mitchell, LSA ‘39, founder of Columbia Pictures Television, and his wife Patricia Mitchell.

The Mitchell Lecture Series — a component  of the Mitchell Program — features ethically minded lecturers from the creative industries to bolster the development of ethical, diverse business leaders.
