PITTSBURG — Dan Shipp’s cycling expedition netted more than $7.6 million for Pittsburg State University.
The college president concluded a 12-day, 745-mile trek across the Sunflower State as part of his “Dan Bikes Kansas” campaign.
Shipp, who stayed overnight in Iola May 15 at the end of his first day of the journey, reached the Colorado border on Friday west of Goodland.
In between, he encountered more than 1,500 PSU alums and other boosters at various rallies and get-togethers and received hundreds of donations.
The donations will go to the school’s endowment to boost Pittsburg State’s scholarship programs.
