Lowrie Family Donates $17 million to Ohio State Engineering
William and Ernestine Lowrie
The Ohio State University today announced a commitment of $17 million from Ernestine and William G. Lowrie, an engineering alumnus, in support of chemical and biomolecular engineering at Ohio State. The commitment is the largest made by an individual donor to engineering at the university.
The gift will endow construction and support of a new laboratory facility, create the H.C. “Slip” Slider Professorship for an untenured faculty member in chemical and biomolecular engineering, establish a new endowed chair and provide an endowment to support new initiatives in education and research.
