这次康大志在必得,加上校友的慷慨资助,终于击败斯坦福.
后者大概是看到纽约造大规模校区的官僚障碍太多,知难而下.有点脓包.
新的校区有2百万平方尺的建筑,会有2000(新)学生.将来康大成立东部第一大学.
一直希望斯坦福得到这个扩展计划,可惜了.
这个康大的校友厉害(已经捐给康大$6亿). 他是在机场开免税连锁店,发的.
The $350 million gift, the largest in the university’s history, was announced on Friday, but the donor was not named. Officials at Atlantic Philanthropies confirmed on Monday evening that it was Mr. Feeney, a native of Elizabeth, N.J., who is known for his frugality — he flies coach, owns neither a home nor a car, and wears a $15 watch — as well as his philanthropic generosity, particularly to medical research.
“This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity,” Mr. Feeney said in a statement released by Atlantic Philanthropies, “to create economic and educational opportunity on a transformational scale.”
