Just got Presidents Stanley's email about an historic
announcement taking place at Stony Brook tomorrow. Anyone have
any guesses what it might be about?

I didn't get that e-mail. But I doubt it will be athletic
related. But in the case that it is, then we all hoping for the
same thing...

Thats an insane amount of money!!!! WOW! I would name the school
after him... lmao. (joking obviously)
Hopefully some of that goes to the Stony Brook Student Union and
the Athletics Department.

$150m is insane, but if you add it to the $60m he gave just
three years ago...

When you are that rich... That is the best thing you can do.
Support your Alma Mater. Stony Brook pride.
If this place is not big enough already, Expect it to get even
bigger. This is exciting for the Stony Brook community. Our
future is very bright!

Really a huge gift to SBU ! Our peer institutions across the
SUNY System must be wondering how we are doing it.
