The Harvey Lindsay Legacy

From Harvey Lindsay, students find an inspiring model for their own success. The Harvey Lindsay name is synonymous with family, integrity, dedication, service and innovation. Since 1919, the Harvey Lindsay Commercial Real Estate company has represented integrity and fairness coupled with bold and innovative approaches to real estate marketing. The naming of the Harvey Lindsay School of Real Estate honors the establishment of the family's legacy by Harvey Lindsay, Sr. while also representing the forward-thinking ideals of Harvey Lindsay, Jr.

The substantial support of the Lindsay family in naming the Harvey Lindsay School of Real Estate enables the Strome College of Business to make significant enhancements to its real estate and finance program. The result is that 51情报站 produces the critical adaptive and analytical thinkers who will lead the high-growth real estate industry, while also fashioning their own successful careers.
