The study that I cited shows impact by listing schools in order of percentage of revenue derived from Federal funding excluding student loans. I pulled federal funding data, rounded-up a bit, to create a list from highest to lowest by total amount of federal funds which could be impacted.

“Could be impacted” yes, but for most of these schools they are only seeing a small portion of these funds rescinded. Simply listing schools by federal funding shows potential for impact but actual impact is likely to be much, much less for most of these places.

Also, it is important to note that many of these schools have preemptively cut programs and jobs due to the potential impact.

This is all in the authoritarian playbook to undermined education and research. Having science and data undermines the idea that all knowledge and fact lies in "dear leader"

Sad.

(OP here.)

Certainly a valid viewpoint, but there is a case for examining these billions of dollars of government grants & contracts for fraud, waste, and abuse. Many believe that educational institution spending has exceeded reasonable levels for administration & administrators salaries/compensation. Tying the funds to conservative or authoritarian mandates does call for concern, but the voters have spoken in giving the House, the Senate, and the Executive Office to one political party. That party's agenda was not a secret, although the details may not be what many expected. If you disagree, then vote in the mid-term elections.

The dollar amounts of federal grants and value of federal contracts received by certain educational institutions is surprising in relation to #15 Harvard University as Harvard is taken by many as a worldwide standard for education and educational research. For example, the $891,000,000 received by NYU is surprising to me in light of the fact that Harvard received a significantly lower amount of federal grant & contract money ($689,000,000).

Moreover, I hope that the list will enable readers to see some non-25 universities in a different light when the magnitude of federal grant & contract money is known.

Hopkins is insane amount of money. It dwarfs everybody

With $822,000,000,000 in federal money, you’d think WashU would have their own space station. Or at least one hell of a lazy river.

OP here. My mistake, but I thought that it would be seen as harmless; after all, what's the value of a few zeros--zero, right ? So no harm, no foul.

This list is weird - UCSF is usually second on these lists.

More than half of JHU's money is to the Applied Physics Laboratory specifically, although the med school also gets a significant chunk.

For overall R&D expenditures, you are correct; however, this list is focused on schools subject to DEI & student protest concerns of the current administration. Trying to show the colleges & universities under scrutiny/investigation which can be affected the most by cessation of federal funding grants & contracts.
