“The University of South Florida is an excellent investment in the future of the Tampa Bay region, our state and the many lives we impact through world-class education and research,” said Rhea Law, president of USF. “At USF, we say, ‘You have to be bold to be at the top.’ Our alumni and friends are both bold and visionary, and we are incredibly grateful for their generosity.”
