The gift is from Spencer Hays of Nashville and his wife, Marlene Hays. He is an emeritus TCU trustee and a businessman who graduated from TCU in 1959.
“It’s a transformational gift for Texas Christian University,” said Chancellor Victor Boschini Jr. “It will allow us to dream even bigger dreams.”
The expansion will be called the Marlene and Spencer Hays Business Commons.
