The Sponsors

Caltech and Southern California Public Radio are grateful for the support of TIAA-CREF in making "The Loh Down on Science" a reality through their generous underwriting.

For more than 85 years, the TIAA-CREF group of companies has been dedicated to serving the financial well-being of an extraordinary group of people - those working in the academic, medical, cultural, and research fields. They do this by operating with a low fee structure, by not paying employees commissions, by advocating a higher governing standard for the corporation, and by staying true to TIAA-CREF's nonprofit heritage, which mandates that the company put the long-term best interest of its participants ahead of the company's own.

Today, TIAA-CREF provides an expanding range of investment and insurance services. With their products and services, investors can:

• Accumulate savings for retirement or college plans.
• Purchase mutual funds and stocks through brokerage services
• Help protect assets with insurance and trust services.
