As a result of the thoughtful and careful planning of USC alumnus Brad Bricker, Thomas Cooper Library received a substantial endowment when Bricker met an early and untimely death.

Provisions of Bricker's residual life insurance policy included the establishement of an endowment named for his parents. Funds from the Bricker Endowment provide for general advancement and expansion of the Thomas Cooper Library.

The University Libraries are indebted to the loyalty and foresight of Brad Bricker. For more information on this or any other endowment, please contact us.
