Former Auburn Athletics Director and three former quarterbacks featured at Women’s Philanthropy Board event

Tickets are currently available for the 2018 Women’s Philanthropy Board Fall Colloquium and Luncheon, featuring Auburn Athletics Director Emeritus David Housel and former Auburn quarterbacks Randy Campbell, Stan White and Ben Leard, on Friday, Oct. 12, at The Hotel at Auburn University and Dixon Conference Center.

Housel, a 1969 Auburn alumnus, will serve as the luncheon keynote speaker, presenting, “Looking at Life, Auburn, and One Another as seen from The Backbooth at Chappy’s,” and will focus on musings inspired from his essays shared through his popular Facebook page, The Backbooth at Chappy’s.

In Housel’s time as athletics director, Auburn won eight national championships, more than 30 SEC titles, had its highest graduation rates ever and finished every year financially in the black, one of a very few athletic departments in the country to do so at that time. He is the author of six books, including the “Auburn University Football Vault,” “Saturdays to Remember” and “From the Desk of David Housel, a Collection of Auburn Stories.”

The morning colloquium, “Be the Quarterback of Your Financial Future,” will feature Campbell, White and Leard who work in the financial services and insurance industries.

Campbell played quarterback from 1981-83 and led the Tigers to a 1983 SEC Championship. He is owner and managing partner of Campbell Wealth Management, comprehensive wealth management firm.

White played quarterback from 1990-93, where he led his team to a perfect 11-0 season his final year. He now serves as the radio color commentator for Auburn Football, hosts several sports talk radio shows and is the owner of a State Farm Insurance and Financial Service Agency.

Leard played quarterback from 1998-2000 and is considered one of the top 10 quarterbacks in Auburn history. He currently serves as senior vice president of J. Smith Lanier & Co.

Following the colloquium, attendees will be able to participate in a Q&A session and photo opportunity with Campbell, White and Leard. A networking coffee and WPB Corporate and Business Partner showcase will begin at 9 a.m., with the colloquium beginning at 10:30 a.m. The luncheon will begin at noon.
