AP: Michigan State gets $10 million from mystery donor

LANSING, Mich. – A donor who wishes to remain anonymous has given Michigan State University a $10 million gift.

While it’s not guaranteed the donation announced Thursday is connected to a string of at least a dozen others given anonymously to universities and colleges in recent weeks, it sure seems likely. All the institutions are led by women. The universities don’t know who is donating the money and aren’t supposed to try and find out, which is a fairly unusual request.
