Congrats, Grads! Today we celebrated KCGIP grads from 2020, 2021, and 2022. In his address, Bob Guldberg, Vice President and Executive Director, asked two things of grads: “1. Go out in the world and do good things. And 2. Stay in touch!” So amazing to have everyone together.

A first-class gift for a first-class university. Thanks to the Knights for helping the UO take flight…again!
Thanks to a second $500 million gift from Mr. and Mrs. Knight, the stage is set for the next phase of the Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact. The gift will create opportunities for students, fund faculty, add a 2nd building: https://t.co/R98nFjCAV8
