George, Trustee<\/em><\/p><p>If I had understood as a freshman at Hampton how deeply business principles shape the real world, I would have chosen business rather than pre\u2011med biology. That realization came later, through experience rather than coursework.<\/p><p>After graduation, I entered the Army through ROTC and quickly recognized that the fundamentals of military leadership\u2014planning, organizing, staffing, directing, evaluating, and controlling &#8211; were the same foundations that I thought were taught in business management. Leading soldiers and managing resources requires the same disciplined, structured thinking that drives successful organizations everywhere.<\/p><p>Motivated by that insight, I pursued business education throughout my military career. I enrolled in University of Maryland overseas courses, many taught by military officers or civilian professionals. Some were self\u2011paced mail\u2011order classes that demanded discipline and commitment, but I believed strongly in the value of business knowledge.<\/p><p>In 1969, I was assigned to the University of Arizona to teach ROTC and complete an advanced degree. Accepted into the MBA program at the Eller College of Management, I first had to finish all remaining undergraduate business requirements. Balancing those courses with a demanding teaching schedule requires persistence and creativity. While teaching tactics at ROTC summer camp in Yakima, Washington, for example, I completed a mail\u2011order course in Money and Banking from the University of Puget Sound.<\/p><p>My final year in Arizona was devoted entirely to the MBA, which I completed in 1972. That education transformed my Army career, shifting my focus from Infantry tactics to financial management within the Comptrollership specialty. It ultimately led me to serve as an Assistant Comptroller of the Army at the Pentagon, applying business principles at the highest levels of military operations.<\/p><p>When I retired, I was eager to use that same knowledge in the private sector. In 1990, we founded MSTI. The lessons of vision, communication, teamwork, and disciplined execution, refined through both military service and business education, translated directly into successful entrepreneurship. MSTI continues today under new ownership, a testament to the durability of those principles.<\/p><p>Over time, I came to deeply appreciate the universal value of business education. Success begins with preparation, and strong business schools provide that foundation. Hampton University has such a school. I have supported Hampton throughout my career &#8211; at an even higher level as MSTI grew and later as a Trustee. So, when the opportunity arose to have my name associated with a school or building at my alma mater, the choice was clear. I chose the School of Business, the school I should have enrolled in as a student.<\/p><p>The decision to choose the business school for naming reflects both gratitude for my own journey and the conviction that business education equips students to lead, adapt, and succeed in every field. My hope is that future Hampton students will recognize the power of business earlier than I did and use it to make a lasting impact on whatever career that they may choose.<\/p><p><em> &#8211; James T.
