Virginia Munson Hammell ’67 Trading Room

The VIRGINIA MUNSON HAMMELL ’67 TRADING ROOM was established to serve Hood’s business administration department to simulate real-world experiences of working with financial markets through securities trading and portfolio management. The room will expose students to the similar technology and analytic tools as used on Wall Street and features trading stations, a stock quote ticker, and financial investment software. In addition to benefitting current students, the trading room will also serve as an admissions tool, encouraging the enrollment of prospective students. The following donors made contributions in support of the project.
