Congratulations to Tobin College of Business St. John's University students for your hard work last semester and comprehensive presentations in the Student-Managed Blockchain Fund (SMBF), undergraduate Student-Managed Investment Fund (SMIF), and graduate-level SMIF. We celebrate all that you've learned & earned since the undergrad SMIF began in 2001 (now valued at $5.5M), the grad SMIF in 2002 ($3.6M), and Blockchain fund in May 2022 ($177k) -- all part of the University's endowment.

📈 A distinguished cohort of #SJUJohnnies in St. John's University, The Peter J. Tobin College of Business showcased their financial acumen with a series of research-driven presentations at the Manhattan Campus last month. 💼 Conducting thorough economic assessments, students pinpointed industry sectors susceptible to future challenges. ✨ Upon proposing an investment in a telecommunications infrastructure provider, Caiden Vlasimsky shared how the experience enhanced his ability to "think strategically and also logically.”
