TUSCALOOSA, Ala. – The Latest on University of Alabama decision to return record donation (all times local):

A top donor to the University of Alabama says he believes the school is punishing him after he called on students to boycott enrolling at the university in response to the state's new abortion ban.

The university's board of trustees voted Friday to return a $26.5 million gift to Hugh F. Culverhouse Jr. and remove his name from the school of law. They say he made "numerous demands" regarding the operation of the school and that the decision had nothing to do with his call for a boycott.
