话题:人与社会 主题:摩根州立大学收到一笔巨额捐款
A former UPS driver and his wife have made history by donating $20 million to Morgan State University 一 the largest gift any historically black college or university (HBCU) has ever received from a former student. The money, pledged by Calvin Tyler Jr and his wife Tina, will fund scholarships that were established under the Tylers' name in 2002.
Tyler grew up in a low-income family and was forced to drop out of Morgan State University in 1963 becau he could no longer afford to study. The following year, Tyler saw a job advertiment in a Baltimore newspaper from United Parcel Service and got a job with the company as a driver. He ro through the ranks during his 34-year career at the global shipping company to become its nior vice president of US operations and a member of th
e board of directors before retiring in 1998.
Tyler and his wife, also a Baltimore native, have lived all across the country but he said they have never forgotten their humble beginnings.
Their latest pledge follows a $5million commitment they made in 2016 for the fund, which to date has supported 222 students with full or partial scholarships.
Marybeth Gasman, a professor at Rutgers University who studies HBCUs, said the gift is significant becau public HBCU's like Morgan State University tend to have a lower alumni giving rate compared to private ones.
“For a long time, they weren't asking alumni to give," she said. But that has changed in the past couple of decades, she added, and the schools have "started asking alumni to give and creating a culture of philanthropy (慈 善)on campus.”
David K. Wilson, the president of Morgan State University, said the money will help students for years to come. “Morgan is so proud to call this son and daughter of the great
city of Baltimore our own," he said in a statement. "Through their historic giving, the doors of higher education will most certainly be kept open for generations of aspiring leaders who financial shortfalls may have kept them from realizing their academic dreams."
“We are forever indebted to the Tylers”.
