Message: [QUOTE="texacuse, post: 2596408, member: 3478"] Crouse Hinds was also a major benefactor to the dome with all interior lighting at near cost and a $1M gift to the university to supplement what I believe was the $5M grant from Carrier in exchange for the naming rights. C-H used to pay for children’s productions at the Hotel Syracuse around Christmas time with entertainment and free children’s gifts up to age 10 or 12 back in the 60’s and 70’s. It is too bad that the corporate globalist UTC bought the company shortly thereafter and brought an end to a great local company who was a throwback good local corporate citizen and promoted good will for our community through its generosity. In order to further support its employees and Syracuse University, Crouse Hinds would pay for any student tuition costs to attend SU 100% as long as the student received at least a B or C in the class. (I can’t remember which! LOL!) [/QUOTE]
