At Grace Hall - a venue better known for wrestling matches (and - back in the day - varsity basketball) - Lehigh recently held a gala event to celebrate the end of Lehigh's "Shine Forever" campaign. By anyone's yardstick this donation campaign has been an incredible success, raising $508 million - $8 million over the target. If you're an alum, you may look at this information, smile, and go about your day and not think about it anymore. But if you're a fan of Lehigh Athletics, there's also plenty to celebrate when you look further at the numbers. That's because the success of "Shine Forever" will also benefit the athletes currently at the university, too. (more)
