The UCLA School of Law has received a $4 million donation from the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, the Daily Bruin reports.

The donation — the largest ever given by an American Indian tribe to an academic institution — will support the creation of a tribal learning and educational exchange center as well as the development of an American Indian curriculum for UCLA students, with course offerings such as "Community and Nation Building," "Tribal Law," and "Economic Development in Indian Country."

"We want to use the courses to draw together knowledge from the university and the knowledge base of the tribal community...[to educate] people about the issues confronting tribal members in the 21st century and beyond," said UCLA law professor Carole Goldberg.
