Lucas Gives Record USC Donation

Posted By JG on September 19, 2006

The International Herald Tribune reports on a massive gift from USC-grad George Lucas to the university. Here's a clip with some details. Wow.

The foundation is giving $75 million (€59.27 million) for the construction of a new 137,000-square-foot (12,730-square-meter), state-of-the-art home for the university's acclaimed cinema school. The remaining $100 million (€79.03 million) is to be used to endow the school.

"I discovered my passion for film and making movies when I was a student at USC in the 1960s, and my experiences there shaped the rest of my career," Lucas said in a statement. "I'm also an ardent advocate for education at all levels and encouraging young people to pursue their ambitions by learning. I'm very fortunate to be in a position to combine my two passions and to be able to help USC continue molding the futures of the moviemakers of tomorrow."
