Established in 1998, The Lucas Society honors those who have made a substantial commitment to the growth and continued success of the University of Nebraska at Omaha College of Business Administration. The Lucas Society is named for John Lucas, the founding dean of the UNO College of Business Administration.

Dean Lucas was widely revered for his vision and determination. Induction into the Lucas Society is the highest honor bestowed on supporters of the UNO College of Business Administration.

As the University of Nebraska system moves from statesupported to state-assisted, it becomes increasingly imperative that the UNO College of Business Administration foster the support of alumni, community leaders and friends. Initiation into the Lucas Society is awarded in grateful recognition to those who believe in and generously contribute to the well-being and strength of our college.

Funds from The Lucas Society members enable the UNO College of Business Administration to provide scholarships, support faculty development, underwrite innovative educational programs, and strengthen community outreach.

Those recognized with membership in The Lucas Society are helping the UNO College of Business Administration prepare its students to achieve excellence in the business world and in their communities.

Members of The Lucas Society are recognized with a plaque bearing their name and photograph on The Lucas Society Wall of Honor in Roskens Hall, the UNO College of Business Administration building.
