Christine Coury received her Bachelor鈥檚 in Accounting the same year. Their son is currently a junior at the School of Business. Joining them in this initiative is Gregg Coury, CEO and Chief Compliance Officer of The Coury Firm, who graduated with a Bachelor鈥檚 in Finance in 1995. His wife Maria Coury graduated with a Bachelor鈥檚 in Health Sciences in 1999 along with earning her Master鈥檚 Degree in Speech-Language Pathology in 2000.
