Thomas Kline, co-founder of Philadelpia law firm Kline & Specter, has made the gift to Drexel University to fund scholarships and expand the schools trial advocacy programme. Included in the donation is a building to house the law school's Institute for Trial Advocacy. It comes as competition heats up for law schools over a decreasing number of law students, whose numbers have dropped in the US by around 24 per cent in the past three years. Mr Kline's contribution is the fourth largest in the US. Source: Philly.com
