I would also guess that these agreements now include "morals" clauses, in case he turns out to be a pedophile or an embezzler, they can remove his name.
Or in case he turns out to have paid me to write all his papers for him while we were students.
My guess is that it's no different than getting your name on a campus building, i.e. Chaifetz Hall. I would also guess that these agreements now include "morals" clauses, in case he turns out to be a pedophile or an embezzler, they can remove his name.
This is true. I'm in no way involved with SLU, but it's standard that the donation would be outright (actually likely paid over a number of years, depending on the liquidity of the donors assets).

Biondi's monthly email message from 2 days ago said they have fallen several weeks behind schedule because we actually had a real winter this year, but Clayco is developing a plan to catch the schedule up without adding costs. So they are behind schedule now, but expect to be caught up this summer.
And Chaifetz was at the game tonight for a presentation at half.
And JMedwick, I go to SLU and I'll be the first to tell you they have urbanity issues.

Or if you name the arena after your spoiled-brat daughter, who turns out to be a scholastic cheater. Remember what happened at Mizzou.
Typically naming a building is different than buying naming rights.
Naming a building usually indicates a donor made a commitment to fund a major portion of the construction costs. The name generally stays on a building forever unless other issues present (e.g., negative associations with the name). In the case of a tear-down, naming rights may convey to a new or comparable structure, or there may be a recognition plaque on the new building if the naming opportunity is up for grabs again. When a donor names a building, there is a reasonable expectation that the name isn't going away.
Naming rights are usually different. A company typically pays to have its name on a building (e.g. a sports arena) for a certain amount of time for a fee. It's a good marketing tool.
The big difference: Naming is done out of generosity; naming rights are done for promotion. I've not heard of an individual buying naming rights but that doesn't mean it hasn't happened. The language in the article is dubious.
Regardless, the Chaifetz name will likely be on the arena for a long time, if not forever, and the intent seems to be philanthropic.

So Missouri's Supreme Court ruled yesterday that SLU is not an institution controlled by a religious creed, and so can receive the TIF money it requested for this project.
As a side note, anyone know why the Masonic Temple opposed this?
did anyone notice the new expanse of glass facing 40? i think the stadium is shaping up to be pretty nice - especially at night once its finished with the lights and crowds inside visible from the highway.
