Bronx medical school becomes free thanks to billion-dollar donation from 93-year-old woman. Ruth Gottesman, 93, the widow of a Wall Street financier, made the donation with instructions that it be used to cover the tuition of all students wishing to attend the institution.
This is a gift that will allow many Americans to avoid starting their careers in debt. Upon learning the news, many students were exultant and some were in tears, as we can see in a video shared on the social network X.
