“Justice Kagan Praises Scalia At Ceremony Naming Law School For Him At George Mason”- WJLA (Washington)

This article that I plan to use for my Donors and Funding project is about the basic cover story of the Koch Brothers Controversy and The Antonin Scalia Law School name. Other than talking about the late Justice Scalia, they also go into the surrounding issue of the name change. George Mason University got an anonymous donation of 20 million dollars and students began protesting that the Koch Brothers have major influence on educations and student academics. In return, the administration didn’t comment but just said that students and faculty don’t understand what goes into making huge deal. The donor pressed on the name change as well. I plan to use this article to get the basic public facts about the deal, and use it to talk about what they’re not saying to the public.
