When a new scholarship fund at Taylor Johnson client Marshall Bennett Institute of Real Estate at Roosevelt University (MBIRE) can advance two goals – diversifying the commercial real estate industry and equipping professionals with an excellent post-baccalaureate CRE education – we know it’s time to spread the word. With the fall semester fast approaching, we reached out to media about the new fund established by DL3 Realty that will award $10,000 in scholarships annually to underrepresented students seeking a graduate certificate in real estate development. Resulting coverage appeared in REjournals and Connect CRE Chicago & Midwest. We also posted the news on MBIRE’s LinkedIn page, which generated interest from potential students.
