A Record of Gifts to the University in 2008 - UL Lafayette Foundation

e n D o w e D C H a i r s A $600,000 gift from a donor is combined with a $400,000 match from the Board of Regents
Support Fund (originally called the 8g fund) to establish a $1 million endowed chair. The $1 million principal produces interest
income. That interest income is used to help support the salary and expenses of a nationally recognized professor.
