“UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — As Penn State prepares for the public launch of a new fundraising campaign, a top volunteer for the effort has stepped forward with a seven-figure commitment. Greg Lucier, a 1986 industrial engineering graduate, will direct $5 million of his estate to the College of Engineering as an unrestricted commitment that can be used for his alma mater’s most urgent needs and opportunities.

$5 MM for engineering and $250k for athletics? Shouldn’t those numbers be reversed? Pfft.

New fundraising campaign?

5 million dollars of his estate? Like when he dies "estate"? Very nice, but an '86 grad is, maybe, early 60's. God willing, he will live another 30 years. Perhaps "estate" has taken on a new meaning.

If he reads this board, he won’t see another 30 yrs. I think we shave years off our lives every day with some of the discussions here.

We laugh at life.

It’s just a misunderstanding.

"No reason to get excited"
The thief, he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour is getting late"

Not as substantial a donation, but another one that benefits engineering students from the coal region with scholarships.

If I understand these donations, it's a bigger current gift and certainly very generous.

I’ll see his $5M and raise him $10M of my estate. Of course, my estate won’t be $10M
