Professor Julius Wangila Mukhwana ’74, MBA’75

Professor Julius Wangila Mukhwana ’74, MBA’75 of Victoria, Australia, died on December 14 following a battle with cancer. He is remembered for his philanthropic work in relation to the educating of the underprivileged and disadvantaged, by contributing to libraries being built for schools and within communities that had none. He spent 42 years in academia, teaching in Kenya, Zimbabwe, and Australia. He also created, from his own funds, a personal scholarship fund, which he managed and used in the education of several disadvantaged orphans from primary school through university.
