The National Law Journal published an article today with an extremely misleading statement. The article indicates that we are willing to sell the law school name for the money to finance the new law school facility in Florida. This is not correct. The Ave Maria School of Law name is not for sale for any sum, and the name will not be changed for any reason, financial or otherwise. It is who we are.

Like many academic institutions, including law schools, we are open to the naming of the law school building to house the Ave Maria School of Law for an appropriate donor who wishes to help with the construction costs of that building. That is a far cry, however, from the selling of the naming rights to the law school itself.
