I would love it, but wouldn't be hugely surprised, if the Walton Foundation makes another big flashy donation sometime in the next few years. A Billion or so would make headlines. Hell, I'll settle for $500 million. I'm realistic.

The other biggest thing that jumps out at me is this one. This is great, but considering the recession and devaluation most funds have seen, as well as cuts in state funding, this is phenomenal:

In 2008, university reserves were approximately $2 million. The University of Arkansas began fiscal year 2014 with reserves of $50 million.


How dey do dat?

Yeah there's no way 2.1 billion is happening without some big time donations.
