About 40 area Educational Investment Fund alumni gathered at Homecoming to recognize Finance Prof. Stan Block’s rich contributions to their futures. Founded by Block in 1973, the EIF is a student-run portfolio worth $1.5 million. Block, considered a guru in the field, has shared his skill and knowledge with 700 EIF students over his 34 years at TCU. Funding for an endowed chair being established in Block’s name has reached the halfway mark.
