KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — The founder of Bell’s Brewery Larry Bell is making a significant donation to Michigan State University.
MSU’s Eli Broad College of Business is set to receive $200,000 to establish the Larry J. Bell Support Fund for Beverage Education.
University officials say the funding is anticipated to support a course called “Hospitality Beverages,” in which students ages 21 and up offer sensory assessments of wine, beer, spirits, along with other beverages; a course that Bell had been speaking at for more than 25 years.
In a statement, Bell said, ” “I am proud to partner with such an exalted program, and I hope to encourage others to donate to the fund so that we may strengthen the resources available to the hospitality business school.”
