We've actually had someone on campus have their guide dog hit a few times last year. The dog now has messed-up hips.

We started the week with the dedication of the Bob Hope Chrysler Classic Medical Building in our honor on the campus of the Eisenhower Medical Center, and we are thrilled to be ending the week with the announcement of a continuation of our 42-year relationship with Chrysler during which we have raised nearly $42 million for charity in our community. We look forward to an exciting future with our title sponsor, Chrysler, which is and continues to be the longest running sponsor-tournament relationship on the PGA TOUR.

Really it's better for them to be back on campus than in a cage waiting for somebody to adopt them.

Recreational sports help to keep our campus fit because they provide ways for students to get out and stay active.

The QEP is a carefully designed and focused course of action that addresses a topic, which enhances student learning at the institution.

Our producing artistic director Peter Altman is a firm believer that live theatre needs to have a strong connection to the heart of the city. Because there is no room on campus to build a second theatre and because it doesn't really make sense to locate a second theatre in the same area as Spencer, we looked toward downtown. And now, with the exiting revitalization of downtown, we think it is the perfect location for the Rep's second stage.

There are a ton of students off campus paying that price, and every dollar is important to them.
