The University of Alabama's Board of Trustees has decided to return a $21.5 million gift from Hugh Culverhouse, Jr. — the school's biggest donor — and take his name off of its law school. The move comes after a dispute in which Culverhouse urged that a boycott of Alabama over its new abortion law should include the university.

$21.5 million would go a long way in helping women in Alabama travel out of state to receive appropriate care. That is where he should have put his money.
