Wow, proud to be part of the Trojan family, even if not at the George Lucas level. Might have to finally watch those old Star Wars movies.

It would be great if an alum like Marc Benioff founder of Salesforce.com, gave a lot more to USC. He has given to USC, but not to the magnitude of his donations to UCSF. His name is all over UCSF in the Bay Area.
