Effective today, the Indiana University School of Law – Indianapolis will be called Indiana University Robert H. McKinney
School of Law. The name change comes after Robert McKinney – an Indianapolis attorney and name partner of Bose McKinney
& Evans – donated $24 million to the law school.
Indiana University President Michael A. McRobbie announced the new name at a press conference this afternoon.
McKinney received his law degree from Indiana University School of Law and has a bachelor’s degree from the U.S. Naval
Academy. In 1963, he was added as a name partner to the firm that is now known as Bose McKinney & Evans. He retired in
1992 and also served as chairman and CEO of First Indiana Corp., now know as M&I Bank, until he retired from there in
2005.
He was appointed by President Jimmy Carter to chair multiple federal banking, insurance, mortgage and loan agencies. McKinney
established model nondiscrimination regulations and pushed for community investment.
The IU board of trustees approved the name change at its October meeting. A formal renaming ceremony and celebration will
take place in the spring.
This story will be updated.

vagueness cannot challenged, so let's write all laws vaguely and throw the constitution out the window.Even if the court is operating under a particular law, if they don't it they will change it to their liking. What a joke!!!

Two convictions becomes one conviction with exactly the same sentence, only it is not clear wheter or not that sentence will be 18 months, 120 months or 138 months. Actually if the guns were in a home, whether or not they were his, he is protected under the 2nd amendment. Jurors need to learn the law and the constitution before judging others. The cour5ts need to do this as well.

With all due respect, Rick, I think you probably would be making a mistake by going to law school. The job market for attorneys is so saturated, you may well find yourself unemployed and with a lot of debt. You mention law would be a good supplement to your skills. True. But employers unfortunately don't value that. You will find that a law degree may well pigeonhole you into an attorney slot and limit career options. If you have a good job now I would hold onto that. As an attorney, you may well end up making less with the aforementioned debt.
