The wave heads East

Yesterday I saw an announcement that Seymour Schulich was giving a $20 000 000 donation to the Dalhousie Law school/Faculty of Law. Immediately I wondered if this meant we would now have a "Schulich School" at Dal as similar donations at other universities have lead to a number of "Schulich schools" including the Schulich School of Medicine and Denistry (at UWO), the Schulich School of Music (at McGill), the Schulich School of Engineering (at the University of Calgary), and the Schulich School of Business (at York).

This morning I finally got around to reading a little more than headlines on the topic and learned that Dal will in fact be joining the list with the Schulich School of Law, though, interestingly, they haven't yet made the change on their webpage or even mentioned the donation on their News and Events page (at least they hadn't as of 11:30 AM on Friday).
