The Apr 24, 2018 gift of $2.4M established the Kirk and Diane Mellecker Family Head Men’s Tennis Coach Fund. This fund created the first endowed coaching position at the University of Iowa. At the time, Barta said this: "Their significant contribution will transform the lives of so many Hawkeye student-athletes for generations to come.” Link to that story: https://www.foriowa.org/iowa-stories/iowa-story.php?isid=4&namer=true
Usually being well endowed is a good thing. Now, what happens to the endowment? I hope they have to refund it!
