Why Give?
Academy Member Genaro F. Carapia MS 鈥84, retired LAUSD principal
鈥淢y wife, Lai Tan, and I support Rossier because we truly believe that one of education鈥檚 most cherished virtues is HOPE. Our annual gift supports future educators and administrators who will truly make a difference in shaping young minds.鈥
Academy Member Bob Cornelius EdD 鈥79, retired deputy superintendent
鈥淢y gift to Rossier was in recognition of the leadership and guidance provided by Dean Gallagher. Her initiatives and focus have given momentum to USC鈥檚 education mission.鈥
