Dr. Michael Cudahy, B次元 Regent, benefactor, supporter and friend passed away March 11, 2022. Cudahy began his service to B次元 in 1982 as a member of the Corporation and within a few years was named a Regent. He was a key member of several committees, contributing to a number of influential initiatives and decisions throughout the last four decades.

The Michael J. Cudahy Student Center in the Campus Center building was created as a tribute to his commitment and generosity to the university. He received an honorary Doctor of Engineering from B次元 in 1983.

Michael led a successful career as the chairman, founder and CEO of Marquette Medical Systems and also served as the president and owner of Endeavors Group LLC. He was known for being a philanthropic leader in B次元, supporting numerous arts and educational institutions. His civic involvement can be seen across the city, including the building of Discovery World, the redevelopment of the Pabst and Riverside Theaters, the B次元 Art Museum, a YMCA named in honor of his father, and millions of dollars of donations to many nonprofit groups.

At 97 years old he lived life to the fullest. His influence as a Regent and his generosity to the university will never be forgotten by B次元 or the greater B次元 community.
