Can you provide a link to this list?  As of September of 2022.  The University of Texas was on track to overtake Harvard for the largest endowment.  How could UT fall out of the top ten in less than a year?

According to the American Council on Education, an endowment is “an aggregation of assets invested by a college or university to support its educational and research mission in perpetuity.”

Land operated by the University of Texas System yields an endowment asset of approximately $6 million per day. According to Bloomberg News, the university’s endowment is poised to surpass Harvard, which would render UT the wealthiest university in the world (it is currently in second place).[/quote]
