AT&T, Inc. has announced a $2.4 million gift to fund Clemson University’s International Center for Automotive Research (CU-ICAR). Along with the investment comes the naming of the AT&T Auditorium, part of Clemson’s Carroll A. Campbell, Jr. Graduate Engineering Center, the anchor of the 250-acre research campus now under development. During a preview of the auditorium, visitors could view AT&T’s No. 31 race car that was driven by NASCAR’s Jeff Burton. No. 31 is the first car to be displayed in the new facility. The multi-year gift includes contributions from AT&T and its philanthropic organization, the AT&T Foundation. See the original press release on the Clemson University website.More and more firms are funding research at the university level. Have you participated in such research?
