#BoostTheCuse Day! THANK YOU JOYCE!

From that point on, Hergenhan became well-known and much appreciated as one of Syracuse University’s most avid and generous supporters. Her newest gift—a $2 million pledge to support the new Athletics Framework—is in addition to more than $7 million in gifts to the Newhouse School, various scholarship funds and the athletics department.

What a great tribute, and thank you for yet another wonderful gift to the University you love!

Wow. Joyce, you are the best. Can't imagine how many lives you have touched and how many have benefited from all you have done.

Awesome.
 
Never heard of her. She sounds nice.


I kid. She's the Queen. Perhaps the most thoughtful and generous person I've ever had the privilege to drink for 12 straight hours with.
 
I know very well an administrator at a Division I school that has prominent basketball programs in its conference. The department struggles to fundraise $1M/year. Just to put into perspective how rare this type of generosity is. Amazing.
 
From John Wildhack (in case anyone was wondering like I was):

[Wildhack's] gift is similar in its intent to earlier gifts—to attract the best and brightest student-athletes to the University and create a best-in-class student experience. Wildhack says that can be a formidable challenge when competing against schools that have more resources. It takes creativity and entrepreneurial, innovative thinking. “We are not going to try to match every brick and mortar at those more well-endowed schools. We don’t need big offices or shiny structures. We need facilities that are functional, adaptable, technologically advanced, creative and impressive to our recruits and future coaches and trainers,” says Wildhack.

He and Amy intend for their newest gift to be used to enhance the student-athlete experience. He points to the need for an expanded academic support center and larger training rooms for football and Olympic sports. He also points to the Melo Center as inspirational in its beauty and practicality. The $19 million Carmelo K. Anthony Basketball Center opened in 2009, a 54,000-square-foot facility featuring two full-practice courts, a strength and conditioning room, advanced training suite and complete locker room facilities for men’s and women’s basketball teams.

“It’s beautiful but not over the top. If we had facilities like that for football, combined with our top-notch coaching staff and our ability to compete in the ACC and, on top of all that, a Syracuse University education, you’ve got an extraordinarily powerful recruiting tool,” says Wildhack.

Thank you Joyce for your undying support of SU. You are truly an inspiration!

Can not like this post and the article enough! SU and we are lucky she is on our team!
 
Amazing. Well done Joyce. We should all aspire to your level of kindness and generosity (which goes way beyond just the massive monetary contributions, which are substantial). There's no greater Syracuse supporter or fan. A+++++
