I am not a fan of the military industrial complex, but it is worth noting that UA alum, Marilyn Hewson, has been named by Forbes as the most powerful woman in business.

She is the person who recently donated over $15 million to the Business School. Till Hugh Culverhouse Jr. donated over $26 million, it was the largest donation ever to UA.
And she didn’t get her undergrad degree from Michigan, but from Alabama. Imagine that!
