This is indeed big news and I know alot of folks are quite excited that this came in, especially to the business school. Many of the other colleges have gotten some big gifts over the years so this is a nice shot in the arm to business. It's so great to see some real positive momentum at the university. Garibaldi has gotten fund raising and the academics on a nice path, which will coincide nicely with our ascendance in basketball!

I really like what I am seeing on the academic and financial side for the University under President Garibaldi. There are lots of good things happening. Hopefully we'll see a resurgence of the basketball programs, too.

What I thought was interesting is that this guy was an attorney for the Social Security Administration. I'm sure he was compensated well, but you don't tend to think of that as $6 million gift well. I wonder if there was family money, or if he was just one of those frugal types eulogized in "The Millionaire Next Door."
