  Beta Gamma Sigma honors Grundmann, Cox, and four graduates

March 24, 2005

 
KOKOMO, Ind.—The Indiana University Kokomo chapter of Beta Gamma Sigma named Glenn Grundmann, former retired human resources manager for Delphi Electronics and Safety, an honorary member on February 25. The award recognizes his professional achievements in business and his service to the campus, particularly as a member of School of Business Advisory Board and director of the VISION program.

Beta Gamma Sigma is the academic honor society for business programs accredited by the Association for Advancement of Collegiate Schools of Business.

During the February ceremony, four 2004 School of Business graduates and one faculty member were inducted as Beta Gamma Sigma members. Associate Professor of Finance Steve Cox, Ph.D., was honored, as were M.B.A. graduate Matt Spielman, and B.S. degree recipients Christopher Andrews of Peru, Heath Martin of Noblesville, and Beth Stamps of Tipton.

Having joined the IU Kokomo business faculty in 1999, Cox was named a full member of Indiana University graduate faculty in 2004. He was selected to join the IU Faculty Colloquium on Excellence in Teaching in 2002, and received the 2000 Amicus Teaching Award for Resident Faculty, voted on by students.

In recognizing Grundmann, School of Business Niranjan Pati, Ph.D., recounted Grundmann's more than 30 years in various human resources management positions with Delphi and General Motors, including labor relations, employee benefits, employment, compensation, career planning, training, organizational development, and employee relations. From 1991 until his retirement, Glenn Grundmann was corporate manager of External Education Relations at Delphi, handling “initiatives, partnerships, and activities with education at the kindergarten through university level,” Pati said. “While in this position, he founded the VISION Program in 1993 and has served as its director ever since, exposing more than 200 educators to the world of business.”
