[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We give $1500.00 annually to my SLAC school. Have since the 80's. My kids (so far) don't want to go there, which is fine with me. My other school has a 1.9 billion endowment so I don't think they need my piddling amounts.[/quote] I actually donate pretty generously to my SLAC every year - in that range or higher in reunion years. I've also been involved in fundraising over the years. Neither of my kids have/had any interest in attending either. But if they did I doubt my contributions would make a difference if they were middling candidates. If they were highly qualified then it might help relative to another applicant if all other things were equal (which if course they never are).[/quote]
