[quote=Anonymous]This is PP. This is why we need to see info like #4 on the Forbes list -- 4. Core Operating Margin (10%): This measures whether tuition, donations and investment revenues cover a college’s educational expenses by subtracting its core expenses from its core revenues and dividing the difference by its core revenues. Williams College has a comfortable surplus, with a 57% operating margin. About one third of the 921 schools ranked, including the University of Miami and the University of Southern California, had negative margins, with expenses exceeding revenues. Knowing whether a school is meeting is able to hit its budget goals for multiple years in a row might have given everyone a heads up about Hampshire's crisis. But really, one has to also consider qualitative factors like the ability and interest of alumni in keeping a school operating. When you have Ken Burns in your alumni pool, that really helps prevent a closure.[/quote]
