About Nelson Rusche

In 2002, SFA renamed the College of Business to recognize the generosity of alumnus and friend, Nelson Rusche. 

Rusche graduated from SFA in 1949 with a Bachelor of Business Administration. Just two years later, he put that degree to good use when he bought his first Gulf Oil service station. Soon he became a commissioned agent, fueling construction sites from the Houston ship channel throughout Harris County. His A.N. Rusche Distributing Company grew to a 250-million-gallon-a-year distributor.

He didn’t stop there — Rusche expanded his business, eventually owning 11 Mister Car Wash shops and several Handy Plus convenience stores throughout Houston. By 1991, he was providing detailed monthly reports on fuel purchases to clients through his company, Rusche Fuel Controls.

Rusche served on the SFA Board of Regents from 1986 to 1989 and was a lifetime member of the SFA Alumni Association. His endowment allows us to award scholarships to our best and brightest business students.
