Google, arguably the most celebrated research project ever conducted at Stanford University, continues to repay its birthplace. The company has pledged $2-million to the Stanford Center for Internet and Society, in the university's law school.
The center, which is led by Lawrence Lessig, a digital-law guru, devotes much of its attention to transforming copyright and intellectual-property law. Google's contribution will help to support Mr. Lessig's most recent endeavor, the Fair Use Project, which offers legal assistance to efforts intended to broaden the reach of "fair use" doctrine. –Brock Read
