The Homan Family

The Homan family has a multi-generational legacy at Washington University, reaching back to the 1920s.

Upon earning her bachelor’s degree from Olin Business School in 1971, Christine began a career in retail with the May Department Stores Company before starting a family. While raising her children, Christine was an active volunteer, and she continues to serve on boards for Lutheran Family and Children’s Services and Family Resource Center. She has chaired three capital campaigns for Christ Memorial Lutheran Church and currently chairs their estate planning committee. Christine has served on the Brown School National Council since 2012.

Scott earned his Bachelor of Science from the School of Engineering & Applied Science in 1966. He began his career at Nooter Corporation before serving as a civil engineer corps officer for the Navy during the Vietnam War. In 1971, he earned a Master of Business Administration from the University of Missouri-Columbia and began a 36-year career with Spartan Light Metal Products, a die-casting company founded by Henry Jubel, BS ’40. There, Scott advanced to executive vice president of Business Planning and Development. He presently serves on boards and committees for Lutheran Family and Children’s Services, Family Resource Center, and Humanitri.

The Homans say they feel privileged to be a part of the Brown School family. “It is our hope to pass on the legacy of giving, service, and empowering those in need to our three children, as well as others. We are passionate about using our God-given blessings to give hope—and a future— to the disadvantaged,” says Christine Homan.

The Homan Family Eliot Society Challenge

Scott, BS ’66, and Christine Homan, BSBA ’71, have established a $30,000 Eliot Society Challenge to encourage increased support for

the Brown School Annual Fund. The Annual Fund provides essential resources for scholarships and academic programs that help Brown School students prepare for rewarding careers in social work and public health.

This challenge benefits students in both the Master of Social Work and Master of Public Health programs and supports the goals of Leading Together: The Campaign for Washington University.

About the Eliot Society

The William Greenleaf Eliot Society recognizes donors who make Annual Fund gifts to Washington University of $1,000 or more. As leaders of the Annual Fund, Eliot Society members provide unrestricted support for Washington University’s schools and programs each year. Tuition today provides approximately 60 percent of the operating budget for schools on the Danforth Campus. The Annual Fund helps bridge the budget gap and maintain the margin of excellence that advances Washington University as a leading center of knowledge and research.

Eliot Society members provide vital support for the following essential components of a Brown School education:

• Scholarships

• Faculty teaching and research

• Student research

• Practicum and fieldwork opportunities for students

• Travel expenses for conferences and symposiums

• Facilities and technology

• Career services
