Financial literacy presentation is Wednesday in Hoover 105

During the fall of 2012, George Fox students were surveyed to measure their financial literacy. Results from our analysis suggest that while a number of factors determine financial literacy, the strongest predictor is the respondent’s race. We believe that George Fox could greatly improve students’ ability to manage their finances through targeted educational programs.

On Wednesday, April 17, we invite you to join us as we discuss our findings from 10:30 to 11:40 a.m. in Hoover 105. Taking part in the presentation will be Nate Peach from our School of Business and Drew Van der Werff, a senior finance student.

The presentation, titled “Enrolled to Succeed or Ignored to Fail?,” will be based on the article “Determinants of the Financial Literacy of Undergraduate Students: A Survey-Based Analysis” by Peach, Ryan Halley and Van der Werff.
