Priest gives $1 million to university A 77-year-old priest is donating nearly $1 million (£788,000) to fund a professor of theology post at Colorado State University.
Fr Don Willette, who ministered at the John XXIII church on the university campus in Fort Collins, Colorado, from 2001 to 2011, said he hoped the post would give students the chance to “learn how to wonder and ask critical questions”. The money came from the sale of two properties the priest bought years ago while working as an estate agent.
