University Criticized for Using Donation on Scoreboard

The University of New Hampshire is facing criticism for the way it has chosen to spend a $4 million donation left by a longtime university librarian in his will.

Robert Morin, who worked at the university’s Dimond Library for nearly 50 years, left his entire $4 million estate to the university when he died in 2015. He dedicated $100,000 to the library and did not specify how the rest of the donation should be used, UNH said in a statement. With the remaining money, the university plans to spend $2.5 million on a student career center and $1 million on a new video scoreboard at the school’s new football stadium.
