Hugh Culverhouse, Jr., the University of Alabama’s largest donor, has called for a boycott of Alabama — school and state — over the state’s latest near-total abortion ban law.
But the UA System and Culverhouse have been in an ongoing dispute over the millions he has donated to the law school unrelated to the abortion legislation, vice chancellor for communications Kellee Reinhart said. In an emailed statement, Reinhart said Culverhouse asked the school to return $10 million, “repeating numerous demands about the operations of the University of Alabama School of Law."
University of Alabama System Chancellor Finis St. John recommended the Board of Trustees return the $21.5 million in donations the law school it has actually received, and restore the name to “The University of Alabama School of Law” in a memo sent to board members yesterday. It was renamed in September 2018 to Hugh F. Culverhouse Jr. School of Law after the Florida businessman pledged to donate $26.5 million to the university.
“After numerous conversations and communications involving President (Stuart) Bell and (School of Law Dean Mark) Brandon, it is apparent that University and law school leadership will not be able to meet the donor’s expectations and do not share the same vision for the future,” said St. John. "It is my recommendation that we comply with the request to return the recent gift, as well as the prior gifts, and restore the name ‘The University of Alabama School of Law.’ Returning the gifts and renaming the law school are Board decisions and can only happen by Board action.” ...
Culverhouse’s father, Hugh Culverhouse Sr., and his mother Joy both attended UA and were prominent donors to the university. He said his father was an active officer of a Planned Parenthood in Jacksonville, Fla., when he was a child and his mother was strong-willed and never would have stood for Alabama’s strict abortion regulations. ...
“Sweet home Alabama? There ain’t nothing god-damn sweet about it,” Culverhouse said.

I’m willing to bet someone else will come through with some donations.

They could solicit another attorney and rename it the Shunnurah School of Law.

His dad was a prick, and not just because of the planned parenthoood deal, so it is not a surprise that junior is one too.

Apple doesn't fall far from the tree, his dad was a shitty owner of the Buccaneers and set them back decades with his miserly ways and failure to keep Doug Williams from bolting to the USFL but stupid is as stupid does I guess

So I’m confused. Under the current law if a woman is raped in Alabama she has to jump states to terminate the pregnancy? Surely rape has to be an exception.

An innocent life is an innocent life regardless of the circumstances surrounding conception.

Holy shite. So you mean to tell me if a woman is raped, regardless of age, circumstance, financial or otherwise, she has to have the baby? That’s fricking asinine

Yes otherwise you would be murdering an innocent child. It doesn’t matter how the child was conceived it is a child nonetheless.

If they give the prick his money back, take his name off the law school and throw some shade in a statement, it might be the first time I clap for Bama in my life

But by doing that you are forcing a birth on someone who may be traumatized by that experience and regardless is in absolutely no position to have a baby. She could be married or in a relationship. She could be so traumatized by the experience she wants to kill the damn thing once she sees it. Have you ever been raped?

The alternative is murder. That is never an option especially with such an innocent life.

Lol I don’t even know how to respond to that. Imagine being a woman and getting raped, and then being told you have to follow through with the birth of your rapist’s baby. That’s fricking sick

Doesn’t Louisiana have the same law?

We have a ban on aborting a baby once a heartbeat can be detected, signed today I believe

Alabama sucks so bad they have to force people to be born there.
