USC Film School Gets $2 Million Gift from Hefner
Playboy founder Hugh Hefner has donated $2 million to the University of Southern California's film schoollinks, the School of Cinematic Arts. The money, according to the university, "will fund a central exhibition space in the new headquarters of the school and an archival repository for student films and historic documents."

This is Hefner's third such gift to USC. Hefner gave $100,000 to the university in 1992 to fund the creation of a course on censorship. In 1995, he donated another $1.5 million to endow the Hugh M. Hefner Chair for the Study of American Film.
