Raising riches for research

In a recent speech to Baylor faculty and staff, provost Randall O’Brien shared this tidbit that I haven’t seen anywhere else with those gathered:

“In the area of research, since 2002 research expenditures have increased over 45%, with external, non-Baylor monies in support of Baylor research exceeding $13 million.”

Sic ’em, research fundraisers!
