Private university in Evanston, Illinois, U.S.
Northwestern University appears 10 times in the Epstein documents, primarily as an educational credential for various individuals and through institutional connections like the Institute for Learning Sciences, with no direct evidence of institutional involvement in Epstein's activities.
The university appears in multiple contexts: as educational background for individuals (e.g., Roger Schank, founder of the Institute for Learning Sciences at Northwestern, who visited Epstein; Adam Waytz of Kellogg School of Management; legal professionals with Northwestern degrees). Most mentions are in government oversight documents and professional records. However, several appearances are in automated emails and newsletters, such as a real estate marketing email that references a recipient's Northwestern degree, which are low-signal mentions with no substantive connection to Epstein.
Key Highlights
- •Roger Schank, founder of Northwestern's Institute for Learning Sciences and AI expert, paid at least one visit to Epstein according to DOJ documents
- •Multiple individuals with Northwestern credentials appear in legal and business contexts within the files
- •Northwestern University School of Law's journal appears in court documents, but this is standard academic citation rather than evidence of relationship
- •Several mentions are purely educational credentials listed in professional biographies
- •One automated marketing email references a Northwestern degree but has no substantive Epstein connection
