Random-matrix theory is used to study the mesoscopic fluctuations of the
excitation gap in a metal grain or quantum dot induced by the proximity to a
superconductor. We propose that the probability distribution of the gap is a
universal function in rescaled units. Our analytical prediction for the gap
distribution agrees well with exact diagonalization of a model Hamiltonian.
