The establishment of a $2,000,000 fund to complete the physical facilities and academic requirements of Brandeis University, first and only Jewish sponsored non-sectarian university in America, was announced here this week-end by the University.

The fund has been established in honor of the late Supreme Court Justice Louis D. Brandeis, for whom the University is named, and whose centennial is being observed this year. More than $2,000,000 has already been subscribed to the fund and friends of the institution will be asked to contribute more, in $5,000 units payable over five years.
