Universities typically don’t announce capital campaigns until they are fairly certain they can hit the goal. #GoDucks — Matthew Kish (@matthewkish) October 18, 2014
Gotta imagine @Univ_of_Oregon has had a conversation with Phil Knight ahead of tonight’s announcement and he’s onboard with $2 billion goal.
