Gift funds human-rights fellowship
Money given to law school will provide scholarships, create program for fellows
A $3 million gift to the Yale Law School in July boosted the school’s renewed efforts to support graduates going into public service.
The gift, from the Minnesota-based Robina Foundation, will fund a human-rights fellowship over the next three years. The Law School announced a concerted public-service initiative last April after concerns among students and faculty members that a much-hyped program at Harvard Law School upstaged the University a month earlier.
