IN MEMORIAM
S. ALEXANDER BILLON
S. Alexander Billon, professor emeritus of business administration who advanced international study at UD, passed away on Nov. 30, 2022. He was 93.
Dr. Billon joined UD as a business administration professor in 1965 and retired in 1997, teaching both undergraduate and graduate courses in business policy and strategy and international management.
During his tenure at UD, Dr. Billon co-founded
the Geneva Program along with colleagues from
the departments of economics and political science, and he led numerous study-abroad trips to Switzerland. He also served as a consultant to the World Bank, the U.S. Agency for International Development and numerous large enterprises on restructuring, privatization and economic reform.
A native of Zhitomir, Ukraine, Dr. Billon became separated from his parents at age 17 and fled war- torn Europe with his sister, Julia, arriving in the U.S. through a program for orphans established by Eleanor Roosevelt.
At UD, Dr. Billon began several exchange programs with the Kyiv State Management Institute in Ukraine, and in 1991 became a Fulbright Scholar at Kyiv State University. He was an adviser to the Economic Reform Commission of the Parliament of Belarus in Minsk from 1994-96.
Dr. Billon traveled extensively with his wife, Irene, and they hosted colleagues and groups of students from all over the world in programs designed to teach management.
