斯坦福大学的公开声明。在此时大家都面临财务困难的时候,斯坦福深明大义,周一早上主动提出把钱退回,给更加需要的资金不足的大学!👍 Statement on university relief funds under the CARES act: Like all universities, Stanford is facing significant financial pressures during this time of unprecedented uncertainty. The combination of lost revenue, increased costs, and a market downturn that could have a substantial impact on the our endowment are all expected to negatively affect the university’s finances for some time to come. However, we realize that this crisis represents an existential threat for many of the smaller colleges and universities that are such a critical part of the fabric of higher learning in the United States. We believe strongly in the importance of keeping these institutions viable in order to provide access to higher education for as many students as possible, and we had concluded that this should be a priority. Therefore, Monday morning we contacted the Department of Education to ask that our application for relief funds under the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund section of the CARES act be rescinded. Since half of these funds were to be directly applied to grants for students, we want to reassure our students that we remain fully committed to the financial aid that has been promised to them.

哈佛已经拒绝退还relief fund 了。
不小心手滑了点了踩
钱又不多,太丢份了。
其它学校还没有一个退的。斯坦福是开了先河。哈佛已经明确表示拒绝退还了。斯坦福要是不主动退还,钱还真不一定能要回去。
所有名校都有分配,昨天的那个大楼里面有贴链接,80几页呢。看大家怎么站队了吧
很多学校都拿到了钱,用的标准是学校里federal aid的学生人数,然后自动生成formula决定每个学校拿多少钱,看报道说教育部说当时为了尽快把钱发下去,其实他们应该在formula里就计入每个学校的endowment是多少的,不知道是不是他们系统里没有数据?他们还写信和学校说希望不需要的学校不要拿这笔钱,是用来救急的,没想到哈佛也拿了…… 这个我觉得教育部确实有错,自己数据参数不够,又过多的寄希望于学校的良心。
现在很多州立学校还挺缺钱的,学生很多,另外很多学生校外酒吧餐厅打工补贴自己,现在都没法做了……
各个大藤都拿到了,钱都和哈佛差不多。cornell和Columbia各12+M。ASU 63+M, Purdue 22+M, USC 20+M
至于为什么揪着H不放,大概是因为川总一张大字报鼓舞了革命小将的心吧。
倒不是揪着H不放,而是以H在江湖的地位,还是要有点姿态的。H肯定也明白自己的地位和态度,所以斯坦福普林斯顿这样的一表态,H也马上转舵了。有时候合理,不一定代表合情。
是啊。
我们这里的大学前几天宣布说预计亏损可能会高到1billion,对一个大学来说7m影响没那么大,退还回去反而得到了好名声。
东岸衰落了。这次疫情中纽约也是丑态百出
都不是好东西。当初申请啥?这么富,缺那些钱吗?贪得无厌
就是不要脸。
如果哈佛符合条件,凭什么不允许人家领取?!
re。。完全是市井小民似的嘴脸了
这不是合不合理,而是合不合情。
re还有州长
这么说吧,shelter很多地方是可以自己walk in去拿吃的。如果有能力自己解决food的中产,最近工资降了,为了省钱去拿免费的食物,虽然没犯法,你会怎么看?而且这人平常还经常呼吁别人要帮助穷人。差不多是一个道理吧?
这个是申请才有的,教育部规定了每个学校最多可以拿多少,但要学校申请才能拿,而且也说了让不那么缺钱的学校不要拿。
斯坦福的公开信里已经说得很明白了,他们原来也是申请的了,但后来觉得不太对应该把钱给更需要的学校就撤销了申请,还强调了一下是在周一一大早(舆论集火哈佛之前)就撤销了申请。
东岸的学校也就做的特别好的,比如普林斯顿,直接说这钱我们没拿过,我们也从没申请过要拿。

可是这个表上princeton也有2.4M啊。这个真的需要申请么?还是自动分配的?

类似现在学校drive through发的免费午餐,不用提供收入证明,任何人都可以去。但是大家心里知道家里不需要的还是不要去拿了,把食物留给真正需要的家庭。
