Bill Rancic to Deliver the 2013 Stump Entrepreneurship Lecture

The Stump Entrepreneurship Lecture is part of the Birmingham-Southern College Entrepreneurship Programs, endowed by Jane and Kevin Stump of Birmingham, both graduates of BSC, with support from an existing endowed fund created by Joseph S. Bruno. Kevin Stump is founder, chairman, and CEO of Interconn Resources, Inc.

Birmingham-Southern is proud to announce that the first ever winner of Donald Trump's The Apprentice, Bill Rancic, will be delivering the Stump Lecture this year. At the conclusion of the season in 2004, Rancic was offered a one-year internship with Trump to oversee the construction of the Trump Tower Chicago. He still remains apart of the Trump Organization today.

After his apprenticeship ended, his initial fame and entrepreneurship endeavors continue to thrive. Currently, Rancic works as a real estate developer in his home of Chicago. He produces and stars in several television shows, including Guiliana and Bill on the Style Network (which also stars his wife Guiliana DePandi Rancic), We Mean Business on A&E, and Repo Man on Discovery Channel. Rancic also travels around to speak at businesses and organizations nationwide.

Rancic is set to speak in the Bruno Great Hall, located on the third floor of Norton Campus Center, at 7:00 p.m. on Monday April, 1st.

Birmingham-Southern College offers the Stump Lecture as a part of the college's Entrepreneurship Program. This program was created from the endowment by two BSC graduates, Jane and Kevin Stump, along with funding from Joseph S. Bruno.
