"The Knights’ donation must be matched by $500 million in state funding and private ­donations during the next 10 years to reach the ­$1 billion needed for the Phil and Penny Knight Campus for Accelerating Scientific Impact. "

When the Knights' gift of $500M was first announced, UO spokespersons were very clear in stating that "there were no strings attached". That does not agree with the statement above, but of course such inconsistencies have become the norm in the "post-truth" Trump era.  

Now, $500M would pay for *quite* a nice science complex.  Will the rest go to hire administrators?

What happens if the match is not met?
