Jenkins-Stark Scholarship

Jack Jenkins-Stark
Jack Jenkins-Stark, an alumnus holding both a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in Economics from UC Santa Barbara, serves as Chief Financial Officer for Silicon Valley Bank Financial Group, overseeing all aspects of the company's strategic and operational financial activities. Because of his strong ties to the department and to the campus, Jack has been instrumental in the formulation of the Jenkins-Stark Awards for Special Achievement in Economics. These funds support the academic and research programs of bright, talented and, in keeping with Jack's altruistic interests, "at-risk" undergraduate students.
