UH Centennial Video

Almost missed this video in my junk email. Narrated by the one and only Carl.

Also mentions the latest funding program has raised $800 million of the
$1 billion goal.

What’s the timeline on that fundraiser?

Weve raised 800 in a a year?

$800 million in about 1.5 years if this is valid. I’d guess the fundraiser will run thru this year ( and maybe beginning of 2027 ?)

I love it. Keep in mind that Carl picked his Atlanta long jump gold medal over his 1984 games gold medal. It is highly symbolic. Against all odds Carl at 35 won over Powell and others. Great video. Thank you for posting.

Keep in mind friends that we do not have the PUF and the $Billions that uta and atm have. Despite all of that we have flourished without it.
