For nearly 15 years, my alma mater was fortunate to count Don among its top ranks. To Louisville, he brought with him a lifetime of service in academia, transforming the university into a magnet for higher education and leading research. He ushered in a golden era of unprecedented growth – from establishing a nationally recognized athletics program to steering the university hospital toward success to jump-starting the McConnell Center on campus together. Those of us fortunate to work with Don remember his knack for getting things done and his honorable stewardship of our beloved university. We extend our condolences to his children, Alan and Cynthia, family members, and friends during this difficult time.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T18:56:20Z |
