'n If Just a decade ago, a small committee gathered on this spot to determine whether a deep gully could be converted into a site for a university campus. Thanks to their vision and energy, as well as to the extraordinary generosity of the men and women whose names are listed below, we are able to celebrate today the realization of the first part of their dream. Most of them are with us today. Others have gone to their eternal reward and we want to recall their names, for without them we would not have reached this point: Matthew Herman, who was the moving force behind the acquisition of the property; William Fingerhut, whose generosity inspired others to sacrificial giving; Samuel A. Fryer, who believed in the University and endowed a number of its programs: Elie J. Gindi, whose love for Torah and munificent gifts made the purchase of the site possible; Abraham Rochlin, who gave generously that young and old might share his enthusiasm for Judaism. As long as these halls will resound with the voices of students and teachers, their memory will live on as a blessing among us! When the Tabernacle was completed, our ancient rakb^s tell us that Moses prayed that the Lord would take pleasure in the work of their hands and strengthen them in; their resolve to see it perfected. The work has begun. With the help of the Almighty let us carry it forward! Named Facilities (Cont.)
