About the Center for Retail Studies at Texas A&M University
A retailer’s challenge in 1980 turned into the Center for Retailing Studies at Texas A&M University. Donald Zale, son of Morris B. Zale who founded the well-known jewelry corporation, challenged three business schools: "Do something for retailing." Texas A&M responded. To support its mission as a bridge between the academic and retailing communities, the Center's objectives are: ▪ To interest more college students in retailing as a career. ▪ To better prepare college students for a retailing career. ▪ To serve the needs of retail firms. ▪ To position Texas A&M University as the premier institution committed to retail education, research, and service.
