To conclude the series of opening events for Austin Hall, donors were invited for a dinner and celebration on Nov. 14th. The Jon Masterson Family Marketplace and the Bailey Family classroom were transformed to seat more than 200 donors, alumni and friends for a dinner and evening program.
Austin Hall was funded by $30+ million in private gifts plus $20 million in state bonds, with $10 million donated by Ken Austin and his late wife Joan; and $6 million donated by the Al and Pat Reser family. More than 450 additional gifts were made to fund the new home for the College of Business.
