The MJDART Series is made possible through the generosity of the family and friends of Michael Evan Jurist. Michael's sudden death in 2007 had a tremendous impact on the many lives he touched at Georgetown, in Canada, and around the world. The Series, named in his memory, is designed to expose SFS undergraduates to the rich and varied accomplishments of SFS alumni who return to campus to speak about where their degree has taken them, their personal experiences, successes and challenges faced. Maria Eitel is the founding President of the Nike Foundation, whose work is supported by Nike, Inc. and the NoVo Foundation. Prior to the Foundation, Ms. Eitel served as NIKE, Inc.’s first Vice President of Corporate Responsibility working on the development and implementation of its first corporate responsibility agenda. Before Nike, she served at the White House, the Microsoft Corporation, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and MCI Communications Corporation .Early in her career, she was a reporter and producer in commercial and public broadcasting. She holds degrees from McGill University (BS) and Georgetown University (MSFS), and Stanford University (SEP). Ms. Eitel serves on a variety of boards, committees and advisory councils including the, World Economic Forum Global Agenda Council on HIV/AIDS, Millennium Promise, Stanford University Graduate School of Business, Lakeside School in Seattle, Wash, Young Presidents Organization International and the Acumen Fund.
