I'm very grateful for the gift, very excited about being able to move forward and plan a building with the space we need in order to accommodate students and faculty.

If we had a 40,000-square-foot building, it means no graduate student offices, no research space at all.
faculty huge impact program quality sorry space
That's a huge impact on the program and a huge impact on the quality of faculty we can recruit. If we tell them, sorry there is no space for you to do research, they're not going to come here.
advertise four might scramble sections students together
We thought we might get 25 or 30 students because we didn't really advertise it that much. We did have to scramble and put together four sections of the (introductory engineering) course.
