[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Objectively, you have to respect what Hillsdale College has built up the last 20 years in flyover Michigan. Their endowment is approaching a billion dollars. No federal funding.[/quote]

Sorry, but any college that erects a statue of Ronald Reagan on campus is a joke.  [b]And it stays afloat due to donations from some of the same right-wing groups that try to buy state elections.[/b] [/quote]

[b]How does donating to Hillsdale "buy state elections"? [/b]It's a podunk school that's churning out smart kids and has grown their endowment faster than any (S)LAC in the nation. They have an A+ long-term financial rating by Forbes, right there with HYPS. It's objectively really impressive. Every SLAC in the nation would kill for Hilldale's momentum and financial shape.[/quote]

[b]sigh.  learn to read more carefully.[/quote][/b]

DP.  Don't need to.  You clearly don't know what you're talking about.  Like most liberals, you throw out ignorant positions following the liberal paradigm but when pressed show you haven't a clue what you are talking about.[/quote]

If it's a podunk school, as you concede, do we really need to focus on whether the growth of its endowment is due to the investment acumen of its portfolio managers or whether it's just a favorite of the same right-wing groups that exploit Citizens United to flood the airways during state elections.  It's still a podunk school that mostly attracts ultra-conservatives. [/quote]
