DETROIT (AP) -- Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross is donating $200 million to the University of Michigan, his alma mater announced Wednesday, making it the biggest single gift in the school's history but raising questions about Ross' insistence on taxpayer funding to make improvements to his NFL team's stadium.

Ross' donation is among the largest ever given to a U.S. college or university. It will be split evenly between the Stephen M. Ross School of Business and the university's athletics department, which will rename its campus the Stephen M. Ross Athletic Campus, the school said in a statement. It brings the total amount Ross has given the school to more than $313 million
