Marvin,
a PhD in economics, is recruited by a University to be Dean of the
Economics department. Marvin agrees to accept the job at the salary of
$100,000 annually, on the condition that his daughter, Mimi, who is
presently 8 years old, also receive a free undergraduate education at
the same university. The university agrees to Marvin’s conditions and
Marvin takes the job. Ten years later, while teaching an economics
class, Marvin has a fatal heart attack. May Mimi sue the university if
it refuses to give her a free education when she graduates from high
school?
