Barnard College settled a dispute over a £7500 Fannie Moulton McLane scholarship after the Board of Trustees consented to relax the donor’s colonial or Revolutionary ancestry requirements. The fund now serves any eligible student of American citizenship with priority to those with such ancestry or Civil War veteran descent. The college may not inquire about ancestry in admissions.
