How does any school system justify a $8.5 investment fund??? I never heard of such. All I ever hear is that they are underfunded. They want us to go out and buy pencils and notebooks for the poor teachers.

justify a $8.5 investment fund?

They have to park their oil and gas money somewhere.

Harvard has $50 billion; among public schools Michigan and TAMU are at $17 billion, UVA at $9 billion; they are are the only 3 public institutions in the top 15.
