YSU gets $500,000 gift for new building

YOUNGSTOWN —Youngstown State University graduate Jocelyne Kollay Linsalata has pledged $500,000 to help in the construction of a new building for YSU’s Williamson College of Business Administration.

“In the 21st century, I see Youngstown State University as the brain and the heart of the Mahoning Valley,” said Linsalata, who lives in Gates Mills, Ohio, and is an active participant in the medical and education communities in Cleveland.

In recognition of the gift, YSU will name the Gallery in the new business building in Linsalata’s honor.

“Jocelyne is the perfect example of how YSU alumni make a difference not only at the university but within their own communities as well,” YSU President David C. Sweet said. “We thank Jocelyne for her continued support.”
