Posted about this late last year when all the right people caught a case of the vapors at the mere thought of it. Well, it's coming to fruition. Glad to see tangible evidence that the University of Louisville values a wide range of views.

Ramsey also said the center will follow the same protocols and standards that the other 30-odd centers and institutes on campus follow in terms of curriculum development and hiring practices. He said Schnatter was the one who brought the Koch Foundation to the table to supplement his gift so it could be larger.

U of L said in a written statement that the Charles Koch Foundation is a "major supporter of higher education," providing money for programs at more than 250 U.S. colleges and universities, including past donations to U of L of about $84,000, according to Inman. Ramsey said that includes funding provided by the Koch Foundation to support economists on campus in the past.

Schnatter, through his foundation and through Papa John's International, has donated more than $26 million to the university, not including the gift to be formally announced tomorrow.
