UH receives $1.5M gift to renovate outdoor track stadium
Article

Among other improvements, the track will be completely re-surfaced.

This should put us in a position to host the conference outdoor track meet.

Yall got a beast in Khator. I had hoped she would stay with USF till Genshaft retired. I always thought she got "it" more than our current president.

President Renu Khator has done a fabulous job and b/c of her many important projects aren't just looked at but get completed.

I'm confident for the construction of these two projects.

She was my political science professor when I was a USF undergrad. She was very tough but very good in the classroom.
