He is so rich that he bought a PhD from Illinois. Politicians in Illinois have that type of sway.
I don't know...just passing along the info from the article.
He didn't. Odd mistake. No indication he cares about us.
Now that you mention it perhaps he has an honorary.

To be totally fair, I’m not sure I want any Illinois politician (regardless of party) anywhere near NIL. That might be one of the few ways we’d get busted in this new era…..
You are right. He was (or is) on the Board of Trustees, but not an alum.
Oh darn, I must have just missed the cutoff…

Gary? Is that you?
Great job, Josh, you're the best AD Illinois has ever had.
Oh there are a few on top of the forbes 400'ers noted elsewhere....
Larry Ellison
Marc Andreessen
Max Levchin
Martin Eberhard
Brendan Eich
Ang Lee
Robert Johnson
Suze Orman
Jon Corzine
Irving Azoff
Jerry Colangelo
Neel Kashkari
Probably a few $ in this group. Although some, like Andreessen, don't have a good relationship with the University
