[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We never donated, but our son was accepted into my husband's alma mater (a top 20). We knew that what we could afford to donate would not even be noticed, so we didn't bother and are glad we didn't.[/quote] But why are you glad you didn't? I'm hoping it's because you have chosen to give back to other institutions you feel do more good (or do good in ways you value) versus you would only be giving anywhere as a "pay to play"[/quote] We are glad we didn't give because the institution doesn't need our money with one of the largest endowments in the country. If we did give, it would have been for sole purpose of getting our name on the list of donors for our son's admission. Luckily it wouldn't have mattered.[/quote]
