    Knox's donation to alma mater adds to fine legacy

    Chuck Knox got his first job after his father was laid off from a steel mill in Pennsylvania.
    Knox was 16 years old, but he lied and said he was 18 in order to work for the Pennsylvania Railroad. He made 831/2 cents an hour using a torch to tear apart old rail cars into scrap metal.
