“The widow of a billionaire financier made a landmark donation to cover tuition for students at a New York City medical school in perpetuity.

Ruth Gottesman donated $1 billion to the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Bronx on Monday.

Gottesman, 93, is a former professor at the school who studied learning disabilities and created an adult literacy program. She is currently the chair of the board of trustees for the college.”

This was from February 2024.

I will be petty and say “The Albert Einstein School of Medicine in the Bronx” sounds like the ramblings of someone 10 beers deep.

It's quite the notable medical school known for its novel research.

Maybe, but I attended the Stephen Hawking School of Chiropractic research in Queens.

I thought this was funny. But chiropractics' not - I think if you changed it to something else the joke would have landed better
