Classroom 430 in the Aresty Graduate Building is now named the Christopher S. Yingling Classroom. The classroom was named to honor the generous donation made to the School by Yingling and his family. A dedication ceremony was held in October to recognize the gift, which will support undergraduate business programs and student career placement.

Yingling (BBA ’09), who graduated summa cum laude with a double major in finance and legal studies, began his career as an analyst for BlackRock Inc.’s Global Allocation Fund after graduating from the School.  He currently helps run the financial side of his family’s premium deli meats business, Dietz & Watson, in Philadelphia.
