[亚伯拉罕]向阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦医学院巨额捐款10亿美元将提供免费学费

布朗克斯区的阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦医学院周一透露，该校从一位退休教授那里获得了惊人的 10 亿美元捐赠，并将为所有医学院学生提供免费学费。

露丝·戈特斯曼博士的历史性贡献被认为是对该国医学院做出的最大贡献之一。

93 岁的戈特斯曼规定，她的慷慨将用于支付纽约最贫困行政区学校所有当前和未来学生的学费。

戈特斯曼是布朗克斯学校的长期前教授，她通过已故丈夫戴维·“桑迪”·戈特斯曼的财富提供了这笔慷慨的捐款。大卫·“桑迪”·戈特斯曼是华尔街巨头，也是沃伦·巴菲特旗下金融控股公司伯克希尔·哈撒韦公司的早期投资者。

戈特斯曼在一份声明中表示：“我非常感谢我已故的丈夫桑迪将这些资金交给我保管，我很荣幸能够有幸为如此有价值的事业提供这份礼物。”

“每年，都有超过 100 名学生进入阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦医学院攻读医学和科学学位，”爱因斯坦董事会主席戈特斯曼继续说道。

“他们离开时是训练有素的科学家和富有同情心、知识渊博的医生，拥有专业知识，可以找到预防疾病的新方法，并为布朗克斯和世界各地的社区提供最好的医疗保健。”

这笔 10 亿美元的捐款将立即对所有在校四年级学生产生影响，补偿他们 2024 年春季的学费。

阿尔伯特·爱因斯坦医学院表示，从八月开始，所有学生都将无需支付一毛钱即可毕业。

“This donation radically revolutionizes our ability to continue attracting students who are committed to our mission, not just those who can afford it,” said Yaron Tomer, the med school’s dean.

“We will be reminded of the legacy this historic gift represents each spring as we send another diverse class of physicians out across the Bronx and around the world to provide compassionate care and transform their communities.”

Tuition at the school is more than $59,000 a year.

Under normal circumstances, a donation of that size to a medical school or hospital would usually warrant a name change. Gottesman, however, was adamant her name not be attached as a condition of her contribution.

“We’ve got the gosh darn name — we’ve got Albert Einstein,” she told the New York Times.

Gottesman’s tenure with the school dates back to 1968 when she joined the Children’s Evaluation and Rehabilitation Center and developed widely used tools to help screen and support kids with learning disabilities.

She established the center’s first adult literacy program in 1992 and was named the founding director of the Emily Fisher Landau Center for the Treatment of Learning Disabilities in 1998.

The $1 billion gift adds to the number of philanthropic contributions to the school by Gottesman and her late husband, who died in 2022.
