Yes, they did. I'm sorry for that. One of my sisters went to an all-women's school in NC that's over 200 years old.

I think the one clear thing in reading through things is that they didn't start really dealing with this in time, and it wound up being too late.

If I can go on a bit of my own rant, it's amazing to think what some of these donors out there that are giving to the schools that already have the huge endowments - $20M here, $50M or even more sometimes. Think about what that would mean to some of these under endowed schools to get part of that infusion. I'm not saying give it to just a school just because, but make sure it's got a plan to stay around. But they keep giving the haves (and yes, that probably includes Rice) with these ever bigger commitments. When the impact might be even better at these smaller institutions.

I guess not much (if any) Kennedy money got to Sweet Briar, then those Jackie Kennedy's mother graduated from there.
