...works in progress, but remain true to yourself,” said Philip S. Koch ’78, who is a commercial advisor to Exxon Mobil. “Remember to give back to the community at large...
...chairman and CEO of Exxon Mobil, Rex Tillerson can arguably claim to have played a key role in delivering a record $40.6 billion in profit to shareholders last year. Yet many of them, including dozens of descendants of John D. Rockefeller, whose Standard Oil morphed into Exxon, don't want him to be chairman anymore.

"I see the CEO of one of the biggest health insurance companies in America making hundreds of millions of dollars last year in one year. I see Exxon Mobil making billions and billions of dollars in profit, record profits. The top 1% of Americans are taking twice as much of America's income as they did 20-25 years ago," Edwards told supporters in Fort Madison today.
