"Bud" Pilling Mechanical Engineering 1950 “My Cal Poly education was a major factor in my career movement.” I made a fairly substantial contribution to Cal Poly for one good reason. I believe we need to give something back to the school that helps us. I hope my gift might set an example for others to give something back to the institution that helped them become successful.
