The Bennett S. LeBow College of Business, also known as the LeBow College of Business or simply LeBow, is one of the primary and oldest colleges of Drexel University. The school is included in several lists of best U.S. graduate business schools and offers a wide range of programs. LeBow runs the Co-op program. This co-operative education enables students to gain up to 18-months real-world professional experience before graduation. LeBow has an alumni network of over 30,000 members in over 100 countries.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.lebow.drexel.edu/About/Facts.php )〕 It is consistently ranked as one of the top business schools in the nation by ''U.S. News & World Report'', ''Bloomberg Businessweek'', and ''The Economist''. ==History== Established with the founding of Drexel Institute, the business program, then called the Business Department, has been in continuous operation since 1891 under different names. In 1896 the Business Department became known as the Department of Commerce and Finance, and in 1914 it became the Secretarial School. In 1922 the Secretarial School once again became known as a business school being named the School of Business Administration. In 1945 the School of Business Administration formed one of the first Colleges at Drexel and became known as the College of Business Administration. In 1974 the College underwent another transformation becoming the College of Business and Administration.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.library.drexel.edu/archives/history/colleges.html )〕 The College of Business and Administration lasted until 1999, when the program was named after alumnus Bennett S. LeBow after he made a contribution of $10 million to the University in what was "the largest (contribution ) by an individual donor in the University's 108-year history." In November 2010, Drexel University announced the largest contribution to the university by LeBow in the amount of $45 million to go toward the construction of Gerri C. LeBow Hall, a new 12-story facility that replaced the 35-year-old Matheson Hall.〔(About New LeBow College Building )〕 The donation is the 12th largest to any US business school, and the biggest ever to Drexel University. Gerri C. LeBow Hall was dedicated on October 3, 2013. The 12 story, 177,500 square foot building was designed by Philadelphia's Voith & Mactavish Architects, LLP. and New York’s Robert A. M. Stern Architects, LLP. Its exterior features approximately 67,000 square-feet of limestone combined with glass. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bennett S.
