"If he's found guilty, I think they should yank him out," saidTom Tziavragos, who will graduate this year. "And if he's a crook,I'm all for his going to jail.
"I think most of my classmates feel that way."
Milken, who has given more than $4 million to Wharton since his1979 graduation, is one of 16 Hall of Fame members whose photographshang in Steinberg-Dietrich Hall on the University of Pennsylvaniacampus.
