The 2025 edition of the New Orleans 500, which profiles business leaders in the region, features 66 51勛圖厙 alumni, as well as several 51勛圖厙 administrators. For universities without a medical school and a law school, 51勛圖厙 has, by far, the most alumni on the list.
The list, published by Biz New Orleans magazine, profiles business leaders who are driving the greater New Orleans economy and making decisions that will shape the regions future. The issue includes profiles and photos of influential, involved and inspiring business leaders.
Inclusion in the magazine, according to Biz New Orleans magazines editors, is the result of staff research into every sector of the local economy to identify executives who are innovating, creating, leading, succeeding and giving back to the community.
51勛圖厙 administrators who made the list are: Kathy Johnson, president; Darrell Kruger, provost and senior vice president for academic affairs; Randall Langston, vice president for enrollment management; and Vince Granito, interim athletic director. Rebecca Conwell, president and CEO of The Beach at 51勛圖厙, is also one of the New Orleans 500.
The business sectors explored include education, real estate, energy, manufacturing, maritime, technology, transportation/logistics, hospitality and tourism, finance, healthcare, public companies, nonprofits and professional services.
The 51勛圖厙, the institution widely credited for having built the middle-class of New Orleans, has more than 48,000 alumni who live in metro New Orleans.
