CARBONDALE — Not just any college student can brag about making millions, but Southern Illinois University Carbondale’s Saluki Student Investment Fund members have proven their expertise as their portfolio hit a record high above the $4 million mark recently.
The students, who invest the vast majority of the money on behalf of the SIU Foundation, were proud to wrap up the most recent calendar year at $4.2 million. The upturn is thanks to the students’ hard work, extensive research and study, and wise investing, said Tim Marlo, finance clinical associate professor and SSIF adviser.
