Before entering politics, he was professor of economics at MIT and the University of Chicago, serving as Dean of the University of Chicago Graduate School of Business from 1962 to 1969. Between 1974 and 1982, Shultz was an executive at Bechtel, eventually becoming the firm's president. He is currently the Thomas W. and Susan B. Ford Distinguished Fellow at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University.〔 Gale Biography In Context. 〕 Shultz is one of only two individuals to serve in four United States Cabinet positions within the United States government, the other being Elliot Richardson. ==Early life and education== George Shultz was born in New York City, the only child of Margaret Lennox (née Pratt) and Birl Earl Shultz.〔 His great-grandfather, an immigrant from Germany in the middle of the 19th century, changed the spelling of his surname to Shultz as Americanized form of the original Schultz. Contrary to common assumption, Shultz is not a member of the English American Pratt family associated with John D. Rockefeller and the Standard Oil Trust. He grew up in Englewood, New Jersey.〔 〕 In 1938, Shultz graduated from the Loomis Chaffee School in Windsor, Connecticut. He earned a bachelor's degree, cum laude, at Princeton University, in economics with a minor in public and international affairs. His senior thesis examined the Tennessee Valley Authority's effect on local agriculture, for which he conducted on-site research. Shultz graduated with honors in 1942.〔〔 Shultz was on active duty in the U.S. Marine Corps 1942–1945. He was an artillery officer, attaining the rank of Captain. He was detached to the U.S. Army 81st Infantry Division during the Battle of Angaur (Battle of Peleliu).〔 H.J. Res. 102〕 In 1949, Shultz earned a Ph.D. in industrial economics from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. 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「George P. Shultz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
