Elihu Yale (5 April 1649 – 8 July 1721) was a British merchant, trader, President of the East India Company settlement in Fort St. George, at Madras, and a benefactor of the Collegiate School in the Colony of Connecticut, which in 1718 was renamed Yale College in his honour.

All of the Ivy League colleges have interesting origins. You should look at them.
