He left a lot of money to UC and the zoo to the tune of 50 million a piece. It will mostly be used for scholarships, including athletic, but it doesn't say how the 50 million will be allocated. He left other monies to other causes like the Cincinnati Nature Center and the Cincinnati Museum Center but he left Norwood University off of the money list. Hehe. (I know I am so petty)

I'm glad someone wrote this up. I got wind of it last night, on LinkedIn of all places, from the UC staff. Sometimes the quiet donors are the best ones.

not only a very generous man, but a very smart man, to ignore NU
