The three-time gold medal winner, Bruin alum and philanthropist will speak to graduates at all three UCLA College ceremonies on June 12 at Pauley Pavilion.
UCLA alumnus Hernando Marroquin searched for more than a year for the donor who saved his life. Finally, he and Dave Jessen, a Midwestern Ohio State fan, met face to face at a Bruins–Buckeyes football game in Columbus.
Recipients include Dr. Anne Rimoin, professor in the UCLA Fielding School’s Department of Epidemiology and Gordon-Levin Endowed Chair in Infectious Diseases and Public Health.
