Over the years, UC students, faculty at alumni have objected to Schott's name on school facilities, but no changes were made. Marge Schotts record of racism and bigotry stands at stark odds with our universitys core commitment to dignity, equity and inclusion, said school President Neville G. Pinto, who recommended the change. The university built Marge Schott Stadium with a $2 million donation from the Marge & Charles J. Schott Foundation in 2006. Schott's foundation has encouraged discussions about naming rights.
