Barker endows animal rights law program
- Share via
Game show host Bob Barker, a longtime proponent of animal welfare, has donated $1 million to Duke Law School to endow a program to teach animal rights law, the school announced Monday.
The Bob Barker Endowment Fund for the Study of Animal Rights Law will support education in animal rights law, including opportunities for students to earn course credit on cases involving compliance with state animal cruelty laws and other forms of animal rights advocacy.
It’s similar to funds Barker has established in the last few years at law schools, including those at Harvard, Stanford, Columbia and UCLA.
