In an incredible demonstration of loyalty and support, Oklahoma State University has announced approximately 900 individuals, companies and foundations have donated $66.8 million over a  six week period to create a multitude of endowed faculty positions that will touch nearly every college and campus across the OSU System.  
 Once fully matched dollar-for-dollar by T. Boone Pickens’ $100 million chair match commitment, as well as the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, the total impact of the historic initiative will be $333.6 million.
