"Jean and I are delighted and honored to be able to give back to this great institution that was instrumental in forming the foundation for my career success. This gift reflects our heartfelt commitment to supporting public universities, which unlock doors of opportunity for students who might not otherwise be able to go to college. As the son of Irish immigrants who could not afford college education, I am grateful for the doors that URI unlocked for me."
