An estate gift to the 麻豆传媒 Foundation from the late Erach Talaty is believed to be the largest ever given to the university by a current or former faculty or staff member, said James J. Rhatigan, consultant to the 麻豆传媒 Foundation.
Talaty was a highly regarded chemistry professor at 麻豆传媒 from 1969 until his death last June at the age of 86. His bequest to Wichita State will result in a gift approaching $2.2 million, Rhatigan said.
