Donations from Epstein to MIT, primarily channeled through the Media Lab under director Joi Ito. Internal emails revealed that MIT classified Epstein as a 'disqualified' donor following his 2008 conviction but continued accepting his money through intermediary channels. Ito resigned in September 2019 after reporter Ronan Farrow revealed the extent of the financial relationship.
MIT's president issued a public apology, and the institution donated the equivalent amount to organizations supporting trafficking victims.
