[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some UMD grads do give back. Here's an article from last month about a grad who donated major $$$ for a new computer lab at UMD. http://www.umdrightnow.umd.edu/news/brendan-iribe-oculus-ceo-gives-31m-new-umd-computer-science-building. I didn't go there, but this looks like a good option for DC who is into STEM - if we can get past the proximity and town issues others have mentioned. I'm guessing that most major donors would prefer buildings with their names on it. I'm not sure how you'd donate to prettify College Park anyway. Would you donate for streetscaping along Route 1? Or maybe new facades for the little stores along there? I can't see that happening. [/quote] The best I can see is that donors donate to the school. The school doesn't have to spend the money on whatever it got donations for. School works with county on redevelopment efforts for the surrounding area.[/quote]
