Brown University has offered $0 as a reward to catch the shooter.

You read that correctly.

$0

The FBI offered the $50,000.

Brown University…

$8 billion endowment
$3.17 million a year salary for president
$180 million in taxpayer dollars per year

$0 for reward.

Unreal.

Think about what the job of the President of a university is.

Here is a good article on it:

https://www.usnews.com/education/best-colleges/articles/what-does-a-college-president-do

“typical responsibilities include fundraising for the school, ensuring the budget is balanced and being the outward facing leader, voice and representative of the institution.”

The first and a critical item is fundraising.

That means maintaining a positive public image.

A shooting on campus is a disaster for any university’s public image.

The President’s job is to make it go away from the public eye as fast as possible.

A shooter that escapes or dies before a trial helps that.

A long ugly trial hurts it.
