Wayne State president presents $600,000 gift to university

Wayne State President Irvin D. Reid and his wife, Pamela Trotman Reid, have announced that they will make a $600,000 donation to the university. A major portion of the gift will support the Irvin D. Reid and Pamela Trotman Reid Endowment in Global Education, while the remainder will be directed throughout the university to the various schools and colleges and to the honors and athletic programs, as well as the Journalism Institute for Minorities. "Pamela and I see this gift as a way of offering students a greater opportunity to enhance their knowledge from a global perspective," Reid said. "It is also our hope that this gift will help continue the process of preparing Wayne State students for the challenges and opportunities of the real world."
