The George Washington University's School of Business offers renowned programs in international business, finance, and entrepreneurship/small business. In 2004, the Board of Trustees renamed the School of Business and Public Management the School of Business, and reorganized the Public Administration Department into the School of Public Policy and Public Administration (within the Columbian College of Arts and Sciences). The George Washington University has offered government and business-type course for nearly a century, but the institutional entity now known as the School of Business had its modern origins in 1928 when University President Cloyd Heck Marvin accepted a million-dollar endowment from the League of Masonic Clubs to establish what was then known simply as the School of Government. The grouping of business, government, and international affairs remained intact until 1966 when President Lloyd H. Elliott split their faculties into separate schools: the School of Public and International Affairs, which later became the Elliott School of International Affairs, and the School of Government and Business Administration, renamed in 1990 as the school of Business and Public Management.
