[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$0. It's a public institution and I pay taxes. [/quote] State support of education is down to an average of about 15-20% in this country. Did you get scholarships/fellowships? Those were likely paid for with charitable dollars. Your education was supported by other people. Think about today's kids who will become the next generation of taxpayers. We all benefit when they do well.[/quote] My father was the budget director of the university. I know all about college finances. I know all about the waste, and the way they've maximized revenues through federally guaranteed student loans, often to student detriment. The college funding issue is a compete disaster and my paltry donations will do nothing to address core issues. Indeed, I think they would help perpetuate the problems. [/quote]
