Partly over the abortion law but it seems just the latest in an ongoing dispute.

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.

Sounds like it’s not really about the abortion law at all.

Sounds like Bama should just write the check based upon their stance.

Well, almost every abortion is a family member, so it’s real there....

Sounds like money issues.

I thought business should not be involved in politics?
I was told corporations shouldn’t dictate govt action?
Now these people want us to bow to huge firms?
Hypocrisy, abject rancid hypocrisy

This guy has nothing that didn't come from his father.
Classic rich kid.

Sounds like Aunt Becky’s deal with USC wasn’t so bad after all.

The guy wanted the Law School to make a statement against the abortion law. But UA doesn't take political stances as a matter of policy. This is about not letting a donor dictate policy.

His daddy has his name on the business school.

Dude, if you don't know a woman you would never think had an abortion you're just not in an inner circle. It's incredibly prevalent regardless of crazy politics.

Sounds like little Nicky has to start putting out!

The way people are digging their heels in on abortion is strange to me. Are you that invested in murdering babies?
