Endowment Archives

Did you think your college was greedy?




I think mine is, they’re a famous college that sells millions of dollars in merchandise, has a top football team, top athletics in general, has the newest and best of everything, gets millions in endowments every year, yet still sends me letters begging me for money at least 10x a year.

It’s UMich, by the way.

Isn’t it ridiculous? They care more about the money than they do about the students. My old high school needed the money more and they never ask me for it.







Do you become rich, famous, or important?
Do you give it a larger endowment?
Do you actively change it’s policies?
Do you get rich, famous, or important people to endorse it?
Or does it matter at all?
