For nearly half a century, the University of Rochester has played a central role in the lives of the Bhagat family.

Sanjai studied finance at the Simon Business School, which led to a rewarding career as a professor of finance and corporate board member. He and his wife Leena raised two sons who also attended Rochester.

Reflecting on their own multi-generational Rochester connections and the Bhagat family legacy of passion for education, Sanjai and Leena wanted to make an even greater difference. So, they made what’s known as a “blended” gift”—including annual support, a provision in their estate, and a current gift to name a room at the School of Medicine and Dentistry in memory of Sanjai’s parents.
