History
Sir Seymour Schulich was born on January 6, 1940 and was raised in Montreal, Quebec. He earned his BSc McGill University in 1961, his MBA from the Desautels Faculty of Management in 1965, and his Chartered Financial Analyst designation from the University of Virginia in 1969. His first job was at Shell Oil Company, and he worked at Beutel, Goodman & Company Ltd., a pension fund management company, from 1968 to 1990, eventually becoming president and vice-chairman. Schulich published a book titled "Get Smarter: Life and Business Lessons" in 2007. He donated $20 million to Dalhousie's Faculty of Law in 2009 to fund 40 new annual scholarships. This was the largest gift of its kind ever made to a Canadian law school, and the school was renamed the Schulich School of Law at Dalhousie University.
