Clay Travis has been honored by his alma mater for a large donation to its law school in an effort to continue its First Amendment Clinic and debate series.
Vanderbilt Law School thanked Travis and his wife, Lara, for their support of the university to not only continue the series, but to provide merit and need-based scholarship aid to aspiring students.
“Lara and Clay have given the Law School a powerful opportunity to deliver on our educational promise in several important ways,” said Vanderbilt Law School Dean Chris Guthrie. “I am beyond grateful for their generosity, vision and commitment to the Law School.”
Clay Travis completed his J.D. in 2004 and went on to earn his MFA in Creative Writing from Vanderbilt in 2008. Lara Travis earned her M.Ed. in Human Development and Counseling from Vanderbilt in 2007. She returned to complete her J.D. in 2023.
“We had an amazing experience at Vanderbilt Law School and believe deeply in the transformative power of a Vanderbilt legal education,” according to the Travis Family. “We want to enable students from all backgrounds to enjoy this same experience, and we want to support the Law School’s commitment to civil debate and discourse and to educating lawyers who respect the rule of law and are committed to providing legal representation to all.”
Since graduating from Vanderbilt, Clay Travis founded OutKick. He also hosts The Clay Travis & Buck Sexton Show for Premiere Networks.
