Let's hope the tuition (and all other costs at the university) don't magically start going up now that they have all that money flowing around...



Cynically, I'm concerned administrative bloat will catch up in 5-10 years and they'll have no choice but to charge students again.


I give it closer to 20 years, but I agree.


Well, given the numbers in the parent comment they should have a surplus of $14.7 million yearly, so they could just let the surplus go back into the endowment and that would help keep up with inflation


Hopefully the donation was made with sufficient fine print to avoid this eventuality.


This will happen. Count on it.


Don't worry about that! It turns out capitalists are wonderful people so they deserve it!
