Family and friends of T. Ben Kasle gathered last month in the Lande Building to recognize Mr. Kasle's legacy. Mr. Kasle, owner of Kasle Steel Corp. and a restaurant entrepreneur, donated more than $6 million to the School of Medicine in the late 1970s, which at the time was the largest gift in WSU history. His generosity was the foundation for the School's cancer research at the time and allowed that work to progress for more than two decades.
