The impact two UCF professors made on a young economics graduate four decades ago will benefit current and future students at UCF’s College of Business.<\/p>\n
Glenn Hubbard \u201979<\/strong>, chairman of the board of MetLife Inc., and his wife, Constance Pond, gave $1 million to UCF to establish the Kenneth White and James Xander Professorship in Economics.
