History

The Robertson Media Center opened in September 1999 and was made possible through a $1.2 million gift from Timothy B. Robertson, a 1977 University alumnus and member of the Board of Visitors, and his wife, Lisa Nelson Robertson, of Virginia Beach. Timothy Robertson is manager of Bay Shore Enterprises and former president and chief executive officer of International Family Entertainment. Their gift also endowed the Robertson Chair in Media Studies, which led to the development of the Media Studies program.
