    I'll take "undergraduates are being sold a Ford Pinto" for $250,000 Alex.

    Flagship state school undergrad is a damn puppy mill. I can remember when we had room for everyone in a Hayne in Kane class. Now they're watching in the hallways on monitors. I have bro' whose kid is at Cal and it's worse there. Freshman and Sophomores especially are being educated en mass and the quality is shit.

    But who wants to watch Middlebury v. Tufts in football?

    By the way, Don Quixote Kewg, don't be showing up at Middleburry anytime soon with your opinions on eugenics and what not. They'll riot and burn the motherfucker down in no tim.

    Damn straight they wood.

    I didn't take Rocks; wasn't a jock. I took micro and macro from Paul Heyne, who had the largest head and face I've ever seen on a human being. I had to share the experience with 700 of my close frens, so Heyne and I didn't get to know each other, but he was a good prof and good at teaching the economis. I lerned.

    You're poor because you are too far removed from your immigrant roots. Hopefully your kids won't be pour and on the welfare like Race when he was in Oklahoma ... during the Dust Bowl. That would be sad. Sad, really.

    The picture improves slightly if you base off Mt Rushmore schools:

    Notre Dame - $11.8 Billion
    USC - $5.1 Billion
    tOSU - $4.3 Billion
    Bammer - $683 Billion

    Bammer doesnt' play school.

    Even more chintresting to the endo #s you shared are the ones we've discussed on PM ... I don't think the average person is aware just exactly how wealthy the Ivy League schools are, and are even less clued-in on the abject wealth at the small ivies.

    When you consider Harvard, Yale and Stanford, sure those are big #s. But they're running small cities with huge and capital hungry grad and professional schools. The UW is one of the largest employers in Seattle. There is an army of employees there.

    Compare and contrast Williams or Pomona or Amherst. $2.7+ billion, but w/o nearly the liability side of the balance sheet and the money is spent on less than 2,000 kids. The amount available as spend per student is embarrassing. And there's the next group of Wellesley, Bowdoin, Vassar, Wesleyan, Midd, Grinnell and some others in the $1 billion+ club.

    The only state schools with huge financial resources are Michigan, A&M and Texas, and while their endowments are big, again, they have very big operations. It puts UW's 3.3 billion into perspective.

    UT's endowment is only slightly larger than UW at $3.6 Billion and they have 5,000 mor students. A&M is the outlier in the south with a $9.8 Billion endowment, but they are a sicko fucking cult so there's prolly some unwritten rule about tithing. Even the private schools in the Souf are dirt pour. Duke is $7.9 Billion and Vandy is $5.1. Miami is pathetic at $1.1 billion.

    No question thought that the elite, faggy lib arts colleges still punch well above their class in monies. In comparison, a shitty one like SPU only has about $100 million in the bank.

    Good catch. I always think of UT as the wealthy state school down there, but it's A&M.

    I put the church schools in their own category, and among them, the generically "Christian" schools, like SPU, are traditionally pore. ND and to a lesser extent, Georgetown, are the exceptions even among the Catholic schools. Also, I'd qualify the LAC comment: it's the ones in New England and update NY, the Cali consortium and Grinnell. The rest of the LACs mirror the big schools. Some have more than others, but none of them are on autopilot like the handful we've mentioned.

    Yes, Miami is in need of an influx of money. They have fewer undergraduates and run a slightly smaller operation than UW, but not that much smaller. Much of Washington's endowment growth has been in the relatively recent past. It's not a school that has always had a lot of money. In my day, the place would have closed down without the fed feeding it research money ... thanks almost entirely to two influential senators. Olympia hasn't been scratching UW's operating budget for decades.

    *correction: Bama is $683 million. Man; they're pour.

    Go there sometime. Their Greek row would make you think that all the money in the universe is right there in Tuscaloosa.

    Yes, and no. It's certainly not for the pour, but plenty of middle class kids on the rosters at UW, Cal, Wisco, Navy, etc on the men's side. On the women's side, if you have a daughter of 5'10" or more who can suffer through a little pain, it is by far the easiest path to a D I scholarship.

    UT has way more dough than AnM. Just looking at the university endowment neglects the Permanent University Fund, which is based on a bunch of oil wells in West Texas and stands around $32BN and counting.

    AnM gets a share, which has been plowed into their endowment. But the PUF belongs to the UT System, and its campuses (mostly Austin) get the income from the endowment. There's a separate fund for the UT med schools. Also, there's three other funds managed by UT.

    Hell, they own a billion dollars of gold.

    But undergraduates don't get much benefit.
