Villanova Receives Naming Gift

Today, Villanova University is announcing a gift of $25 million from alumnus Charles "Chuck" Widger, founder and chairman of Brinker Capital. We will be known as the Villanova University Charles Widger School of Law. I was pleased to learn that the primary use of the funds will be for student scholarships, though there will also be some academic programming and a new inter-disciplinary professorship.

The announcement is here, and an article is here.
