The Gift of Transformation: Connie & Kevin Chou Hall

Kevin Chou, BS 02 and founding CEO of mobile gaming firm Kabam, says his experience as an undergraduate at UC Berkeley’s Haas School of Business transformed his life. Now Chou and his wife, Dr. Connie Chen, have made a transformational gift of up to $25 million to the Haas School to help other students follow in his path.
It is the largest personal gift to UC Berkeley by an alumnus under the age of 40. In recognition of the gift, the school will name its new state-of-the-art academic building Connie & Kevin Chou Hall.
In this video, Kevin Chou and Connie Chen talk about their strong belief in public education and why they made the gift.

Chou hall simply has no garbage cans, so are we supposed to dump our garbage outside?
The amount of garbage created doesn't of course magically decrease because Chou doesn't provide garbage cans...
It's another PR (BS) move by UCB on par with faucets with a trickle of water while their sprinklers waste more water than a golf course.
And the business majors and MBAs who inhabit Chou likewise care most about image, risibly posing as environmentalists. Chou has "CHALLENGE THE STATUS QUO" emblazoned on the patio floor, exhorting students who have devoted themselves to perpetuating a system that privileges profit above all else... It's beyond a sick joke, just imagine the extraordinary level of self-deception required to have that carved outside Chou, a building dedicated to training the future cogs in the capitalist machine... Challenge the status quo!? You couldn't make this stuff up... I'm across the patio in the business library where an uncritical display of Horatio Alger stories adorns the walkway; a collection of rags-to-riches fiction published during the Gilded Age, the display oblivious to the irony of presenting this fiction as a celebration of non-existent upward mobility then and now... The elites who train here live in a Dreamworld, they must tell themselves endless fairy tales to stave off the guilt...
