Harvard Endowment Passes $25 Billion

BOSTON (AP) – Harvard University’s riches
have surged past $25 billion, the school announced Friday, but the news
came amid signs that the world’s wealthiest university is struggling
to find a permanent CEO for its in-house money management company.

With a net worth greater than that of roughly half
of the world’s 197 nation states, Harvard still finds the time and
gall
to ask unfortunate grads like the Dowbrigade for money at least a half
dozen times a year. The thinking here is that THEY should be sending
US checks, just on general principle, for all the good press we give
them.
