Law library receives $1 million gift from longtime benefactor

The Joan Irvine Smith and Athalie R. Clarke Foundation has made a $1 million gift to the new School of Law at the University of California, Irvine. The gift will support the establishment of the law library’s core collection. Smith, like her late mother, Athalie R. Clarke, has been a longtime advocate of the UCI and of establishing a law school on the campus.
