Cornell Law School Receives $25 Million Pledge
Cornell Law School has announced a $25 million pledge from an anonymous donor to establish an endowment that will support faculty research, specific national and international program activities, scholarships, and other initiatives identified by the dean.
According to the university, the gift will enable the law school to maintain and enhance its overall quality and interdisciplinary scholarships and programs.
"This is a truly monumental gift that will enhance the quality of Cornell Law School for generations to come," said law school dean Stewart J. Schwab. "It is one of the most generous gifts in the history of American legal education, and will enable us to implement our vision of Cornell Law School as a small law school with a world-class faculty sending out a fair number of graduates who lead lives of distinction and service in numerous fields and arenas throughout the world. It inspires all of us in the Cornell Law School community to redouble our efforts to be a center of excellence for legal education."
