WSU Tri-Cities to host brunch fundraiser to benefit Carson College of Business

Washington State University Tri-Cities will host a brunch fundraiser on Jan. 27 at Anthony’s at Columbia Point in Richland, Wash., that will support the Carson College of Business.

The Point to Success Brunch will begin at 10 a.m. and will feature WSU football great, Ryan Leaf, who will present “Lying to Myself: The Ryan Leaf Story – My journey from the very top to the very bottom and back and what it takes to stay there.”

The event will also include a wine grab and live and silent auctions. The auctions will feature prizes such as a stay at a penthouse condo for eight in Mexico, a round of golf with Leaf or two nights for four on a Lake Union houseboat. The brunch will feature a meal presented by Anthony’s.

“All proceeds from the event make a direct and immediate impact on the success of business education and students at the WSU Tri-Cities campus,” said Robert Harrington, academic director of the Carson College of Business at WSU Tri-Cities. “This investment in quality business education in the Tri-Cities allows us to support innovations in the classroom, services and activities for student and academic career success and faculty development of research that provides business insights.”
