Boyd Gaming announced that they will pledge $1 million to Norfolk State University on Friday.
This news comes shortly after NSU revealed plans to introduce a new introductory course in gaming management. As a result, the department will be renamed the “Boyd Gaming Department of Tourism & Hospitality Management.”
“We look forward to working closely with our friends and partners at NSU in the years ahead as we build a best-in-class team, and create exciting career opportunities for Norfolk State graduates at our resort,” said Ron Bailey, vice president and general manager of the Norfolk casino.
