WITH HONORS — Hadmi Ulukaya, founder and CEO of Chobani, recently delivered the main address for the Class of 2023 commencement at Baruch College, part of The City University of New York. Baruch College awarded an Honorary Doctor of Humane Letters to Ulukaya, who had taken classes at the college after he immigrated to the United States from Turkey in 1994. A Baruch professor learned of Ulukaya’s background in cheesemaking and asked for a lesson at her Upstate New York farm. Ulukaya loved the area, which reminded him of his home, and he ultimately decided to stay. He worked on a dairy farm and then started a Feta cheese company. In 2005, Ulukaya purchased an old yogurt factory, and two years later, he launched Chobani. |
