LOGAN, Utah (AP) - Business schools at two Utah universities are getting a $3.5 million boost from an Ogden-based energy company.

The Herald Journal of Logan reports FJ Management, Inc., will donate $1.75 million each to the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business at Utah State University and the David Eccles School of Business at the University of Utah.

FJ Management is best known as Flying J, which operates gas stations and truck stops across the U.S. and Canada. The company was founded in 1968 by Jay Call. It was reorganized as FJ Management in 2010 after bankruptcy.

The donations will build and support fully-staffed career services centers bearing the Flying J name at both schools.

Each school will also get an additional $750,000 over the next 15 years for student scholarships
