The Gee Challenge“BuckeyeThon is a great way to show
everyone the spirit of this University: the
fact that we care and the fact that we
care deeply. Over the past few years we
have raised over a quarter million dollars
in support of this great endeavor. The
truth of the matter is that we should
raise a lot more. They raise a lot of
money at Penn State. They raised a lot of
money at Vanderbilt when I was there.
This is the biggest and most audacious
University in the country and we need to
have this as a major goal.”
President Gordan Gee
