There are a lot of very rich guys who graduated from The Ohio State University. They are welcome to donate their millions to the research programs. Most choose to donate their $$ to the Football team...
Endowments:
Ohio State:
3.579 billion USD
Michigan:
9.7 billion USD
Michigan State:
3 billion USD
University of Illinois:
3.3 billion USD
How about getting rid of the anti-white, anti-men, anti-American professors. NOT ONE would be missed.
Open up the alumni funds...those usually have hundreds of millions of $$$.
My alumni will never get a penny from me. That is atheists’ church.
No joke. As an undergrad, my U’s administrative offices treated me like total garbage. Even the 3-4 times over the years that I called them because I needed a password reset because I need a transcript, the woman treated me like something that scurried under the sink until she asks what year I will be graduating, I tell her I GRADUATED in 1999, I’m sure the computer shows that I’m an older guy that is fresh pickings since I’ve donated NOTHING to them, and suddenly the cranky witch puts her smooth boss on the phone and it’s all, “Yes sir, anything you need sir, give me your address and I’ll personally make it happen yesterday, sir,” talking too high and too fast like somebody has a gun to his head. It’s like, “Oh s#!+, he’s not a student, he’s alumni!!!!!” Should I feel flattered or concerned that I sound 23 years old on the phone?
When these people call me up asking for money, I just laugh and laugh...
And the ballplayers, the biggest offenders, always get away with no-show community service and probation after the coach pays a visit to the police station and the ballplayer’s felonies magically become misdemeanors.
What is really funny is that professors use these students as labor; like cleaning snow off their houses side walk, etc. I also can tell u that Harvywood has nothing on these creeps.
No doubt. When I was an engineering undergrad in the later 90s, it was obvious that things were skewed when a hot girl with a C-average was on scholarship and was awarded a fellowship to get her master’s. My GPA was markedly better than hers and I was getting nothing. I’ve also interviewed a few of them. Same old story: she has a good GPA, master’s degree, was on scholarship/fellowship most of the way through school, has some really nice school awards, then you start talking engineering with her and she doesn’t know the difference between shear and bending stresses. She seemed like she’d never heard of torsion. Not too hard to figure out how she got through school. She latched onto some faculty guy having marital problems and her ticket was punched. My life was harder and I didn’t get that prime job at United Technologies right out of college but I’m so glad I did it honestly.
