Stark County businessman Benjamin Suarez has given $1 million to the University of Akron for a marketing program in his name.Suarez said the donation to his alma mater will expand on existing programs he's already created -- a direct marketing course and seminars.
``We want to make it into a full four-year course,'' he said. ``We think we can contribute. This is just the first donation from me.''In a press release, James Barnett, dean of the UA College of Business Administration, said the marketing department likely would be named for Suarez and his wife, Nancy.``The university is very grateful for this generous gift,'' Barnett said in the written comments.UA spokesman Ken Torisky said Suarez's gift was ``one of the largest'' to the UA College of Business.Suarez, 64, is chief executive and president of Suarez Corp. Industries, a Jackson Township company that markets products for health, beauty and the home.
