I went to an undergrad college that is one of the richest in America-- their endowment is like almost 3 billion dollars. I had to ask them to get off their phone list for donations but I still get stuff in the mail and it's like, yeah right. I wasn't even happy there. I work at a college with an endowment that's more like 70 million. Also I think it's BS public institutions can't ask for money in the same way--they may be tax funded but they are certainly underfunded. Imagine if people gave to their K-12 public schools! Anyway, that's my rant about it.
