Вы изивините не могли бы разобраться как работает частные университеты в США перед тем как тут рыдать. Стенфорд как и Гарвард это частные ВУЗы, которые на сегодняшний день имеют такое количество фондов, что спокойно могут учить студентов бесплатно несколько десятков лет и при этом не сильно обеднеют. К примеру донейншин в Стенфорд в 2017 году впервые превысило один миллиард долларов.sasha_z wrote: 03 Aug 2019 05:20 Не за Российские деньги - нет, за наши с вами, Сегунька. Смешно? Мне нет.
И уже если на то пошло, то для студентов из Калифорнии в Стенфорде обучение бесплатно если доход родителей ниже чем 150К в год... Так как Вы уже это пишите неоднократно из топика в топик, то позвольте поинтересоваться зачем Вы это делаете не понимая сути вопроса?
Endowment and donations
The university's endowment, managed by the Stanford Management Company, was valued at $24.8 billion in August 2017.[90]:2[91]:1 Payouts from the Stanford endowment covered approximately 22% of university expenses in the 2017 fiscal year (September 1 through August 31).[90]:2 In the 2018 NACUBO-TIAA survey of colleges and universities in the United States and Canada, only Harvard University, the University of Texas System, and Yale University had larger endowments than Stanford.[92]
In 2006, President John L. Hennessy launched a five-year campaign called the Stanford Challenge, which reached its $4.3 billion fundraising goal in 2009, two years ahead of time, but continued fundraising for the duration of the campaign. It concluded on December 31, 2011, having raised a total of $6.23 billion and breaking the previous campaign fundraising record of $3.88 billion held by Yale.[93][94] Specifically, the campaign raised $253.7 million for undergraduate financial aid, as well as $2.33 billion for its initiative in "Seeking Solutions" to global problems, $1.61 billion for "Educating Leaders" by improving K-12 education, and $2.11 billion for "Foundation of Excellence" aimed at providing academic support for Stanford students and faculty. Funds supported 366 new fellowships for graduate students, 139 new endowed chairs for faculty, and 38 new or renovated buildings. The new funding also enabled the construction of a facility for stem cell research; a new campus for the business school; an expansion of the law school; a new Engineering Quad; a new art and art history building; an on-campus concert hall; a new art museum; and a planned expansion of the medical school, among other things.[95][96] In 2012 the university raised $1.035 billion, becoming the first school to raise more than a billion dollars in a year.[19]
In fiscal year 2017, 1.1 billion was donated though some of this was for operating expenses (e.g., new buildings) and not the endowment.[91]:2
