About

Western's Merriman Financial Literacy Program is inspired by the award-winning work of Paul Merriman, who in his so-called retirement has worked tirelessly to improve people's lives through education that furthers their financial literacy and improves their investing and retirement outcomes.

You may access abundant resources at The Merriman Financial Education Foundation website: https://www.paulmerriman.com/ 

At Western, Paul's efforts have enabled us to establish and expand courses in financial literacy, and in 2024 we are launching additional programs like online learning, peer coaching, workshops, and speaking events to support students, staff, faculty, and community members in their financial journeys.
