MONEY MATTERS

摘要

A mining magnate and his wife have donated $25 million to West Virginia University (WVU) in Morgantown to fund breast cancer care and research and a number of other health and academic programs. Benjamin Statler, who studied mining engineering at WVU, and his wife, Jo, want a portion of the gift to fund a mobile mammography unit to provide free services across rural West Virginia. The donation will also help the university recruit physician-scientists for its cancer center, beef up programs in the College of Engineering and Mineral Resources, and put up a new score-board at the WVU Coliseum.
