That gift was that he announced he was going to pay everyone’s student loans at a cost of an estimated $40 million dollars.
If you wondering how Smith got his riches, he’s the founder and CEO of Vista Equity Partners, a firm that invests in software, data and tech companies.
Smith received an honorary doctorate from Morehouse for speaking to the graduating class.
