My donor suggestion: Let the people who came up with this figure it out. Guessing they know what they are doing.

Just saw that.

Dan Castellaneta (NIU Class of '81) is the voice of Homer Simpson, Abraham "Grampa" Simpson, Barney Gumble, Krusty the Clown, Groundskeeper Willie, Mayor Quimby, Gil Gunderson, Hans Moleman and others. Matt Groening is the show's creator.

Dan makes very nice coin, but not nearly as much as Groening. Were Dan to give back, I'm sure he'd want it to go to the theater or art departments (he has an art degree from NIU).

That's got to be worth 10's, if not 100's of thousands of dollars.

He is defiantly been a great help to athletics.

Too bad I have no interest in golf. That course is 15min away.

Doesn't matter. Not getting on unless you know somebody or possibly play in the one NIU outing they hold there...that only costs $500 for entry

I'm guessing you could park a few miles away, grab a few clubs, jump some fences and hit a couple of balls before you get chased off the property

Someone should just write a nice letter to Bill Gates or Warren Buffet or Oprah!

He also states that his fondest memories of NIU are watching LeShon Johnson, Micheal Turner and Garrett Wolfe run all over everyone

Maybe I can just go in the club house to buy an ice tea and say thank you.

Naming rights for Huskie Stadium should bring in some big bucks.
