Univ. Of Alabama Returns $21.5 Million Gift; Donor Urged Boycott Over Abortion Law
June 7, 2019

FTA:
The University of Alabama’s Board of Trustees has voted to return a $21.5 million gift from Hugh Culverhouse Jr. — the school’s biggest donor — and take his name off its law school. The move comes after Culverhouse urged businesses and prospective students to boycott the university and the state over Alabama’s new abortion law.

The school says the transaction to return the funds was processed Friday morning and that it will also return any accrued interest. Last fall, Culverhouse pledged to donate a total of $26.5 million over four years.
