The gift is second only to the $50-million contribution made in 1969 by 1931 alumnus E. Claiborne Robins, which fundamentally altered the course of the university by elevating it in a number of ways.
The Weinsteins’ gift will enable the university to create a collaborative, state-of-the-art center that co-locates, integrates, and expands services that support academic achievement for students, including effective speaking, writing, and peer tutoring. The new center also will include advanced quantitative support and other resources for students, officials said.
