"The man who put the ""K"" in Dreamworks SKG, founder and CEO Jeffrey Katzenberg, along with his wife Marilyn, recently announced plans to donate $1.25 million to Boston University's College of Communication and College of General Studies, schools from which Katzenberg's children graduated. According to CGS Dean Linda Wells, the Katzenberg donation will be used to create a third-floor study center, to be named the Marilyn and Jeffrey Katzenberg Center.
""The new center will be a place to read, write and think in a space that's aesthetically conducive to quiet study and reflection,"" Wells said in the newsletter.
Wells said the project should be completed this summer and will be dedicated next fall, possibly on Parents' Weekend.
""I am extremely grateful to the generosity of Marilyn and Jeffrey Katzenberg,"" she said in an email. ""Their naming gift has encouraged others-alumni, parents and friends of the college-to help us make this new space the academic center of our college.""
