March is Women’s History Month, and to kick it off right, 93-year-old former professor Ruth Gottesman made her mark on the world by donating $1 billion to ensure that students at a Bronx university received free tuition in perpetuity.
“I’ve never seen anybody behave better with a billion dollars,” Warren Buffett said of the donation.
