Ohio State University Alumnus Monte Ahuja donated $3.5 million dollars to OSU.
“I began Ohio State as an international student with a dream, determination, and empty pockets,” Ahuja said in a press release. “What I learned through my studies and from the university community played a significant role in my entrepreneurial journey and accomplishments. My gift to the College of Engineering is an investment in students and success.”
