High Point getting $40 million

High Point University is getting $10 million each from four local families, doubling the number of families who have made gifts at that level since Nido R. Qubein became the school's president in 2005.

Most of the gifts from the families of Cobein and Earl E. Congdon, Fred E. Wilson Jr. and Mark A. Norcross are dedicated to the university's School of Health Sciences and proposed school of pharmacy.
