CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. - Boston College Athletics has received a $15 million-dollar lead gift to name the Hoag Basketball Pavilion, the future practice home of BC's men's and women's basketball programs.
The gift, one of the largest donations in the history of Boston College athletics, comes from University Trustee Michaela "Mikey" Hoag '86, the chair and founder of "Part the Cloud," an Alzheimer's research movement in Silicon Valley that has raised more than $60 million and funds 59 human trials in nine countries, and her husband Jay, a founding general partner of TCV, a venture capital firm based in Menlo Park, CA.
