Santa Clara University has received a $175 million gift to support a new medical school, which the university will launch in collaboration with Sutter Health. It will be the first new medical school in the San Francisco Bay Area in over a century, according to the announcement.
The school will be called the Mark & Mary Stevens School of Medicine after the donors, Santa Clara alumna Mary (Mathews) Stevens and her husband, Mark Stevens, a venture capitalist who sits on the board of Nvidia and is a part owner of the Golden State Warriors.
Their donation represents the largest-ever cash gift to an institute of Catholic higher education, and the largest gift in Santa Clara’s history, the announcement said.
