安德鲁·杨总统将每年向哈佛收取至少3亿美元在俄亥俄州建立一所大学

2019-10-05 14:27   美国新闻网   - 

 

       如果企业家安德鲁·杨(Andrew Yang)赢得总统大选,哈佛大学的价格将超过3亿美元。

       作为争夺民主党候选人的总统候选人,杨并不是首屈一指的人,但劣势者在筹款方面取得了巨大成功,民意测验表明他的排名有所提高。像其他总统候选人一样,候选人平台的一部分解决了高等教育的成本。

       但是,杨在教育议程上有其他候选人没有做过的事情。* 2020年充满希望的人与《新闻周刊》谈论了一个完全独特的提议:使哈佛分担数百万美元,在美国开设另一个校园。

       杨的计划将使任何拥有超过300亿美元捐赠资金的大学贡献其捐赠资金的1%在俄亥俄州建立和运营一所新大学。该大学自立后,高等教育机构便会在另一个社区建立一所大学。

       在一段时间内,哈佛大学的身家达到了300亿美元。在整个2019财年,学校在财务方面继续占据主导地位,这使哈佛的捐赠额达到409亿美元。杨将要向他们支付的409亿美元中的1%为4.09亿美元。

       杨在接受《新闻周刊》采访时说:“哈佛可能不会在中国开设前哨基地,而是会在中西部开设校园,并利用新的地点来扩展和尝试新的教育模式。”

       他补充说,当前的教育状况激励最富有的大学保持其排他性,而不是探索新的方法来“进一步履行其使命并为公众服务”。

       哈佛将要求建立的那所大学的细节仍然必须解决。杨说,将由常春藤盟校决定如何与高等教育机构接洽,包括如何品牌化。哈佛对《新闻周刊》说,对杨的提议没有评论。

       杨补充说,如果耶鲁大学“足够幸运”加入“ 300亿美元俱乐部”,那所学校也可以帮助资助更多大学。

       上周五,耶鲁大学宣布其捐赠基金在截至6月30日的财政年度中获得了5.7%的投资回报。这一增长使捐赠基金的价值从2018年的294亿美元增至303亿美元。新闻周刊与耶鲁大学取得了联系,但没有及时得到答复以发表。

       杨洁said说:“有人开玩笑说耶鲁大学是一所附属大学的对冲基金。” “这不是理想的资金使用方式。”

       杨致远的母校布朗大学拥有42亿美元的捐赠,不太可能在短期内感受到这一政策的影响。

       对于杨来说,资金的适当使用将是增加每个班级的插槽数量并扩大访问范围。他还提倡为历史上的黑人大学和大学提供更多支持,减少学生贷款债务,免费或大幅减少社区大学的费用,与其他候选人保持一致。

       大学捐赠基金由对学校的捐赠构成,旨在为学校的某些方面提供资金,同时以增加本金的方式进行投资。考虑到这笔钱既可以帮助大学,也可以成为投资基金,因此许多大学对如何使用这笔钱都有严格的指导方针。

       在哈佛大学和耶鲁大学,捐赠资金被用来资助各种各样的事情,包括教师的薪水,奖学金和研究。尽管分配的支出每年都在波动,但哈佛的目标是将支出从捐赠基金中保持在百分之五到百分之五点五之间,而耶鲁大学则保持百分之四到六点半。

       那么,为什么俄亥俄州要开设一所新大学呢?杨说,它具有现有基础设施和需求的“正确融合”。杨说,尽管如此,包括密歇根州,佛罗里达州和密苏里州在内的十几个地点中的一个将是“有道理的”。

PRESIDENT ANDREW YANG WOULD CHARGE HARVARD AT LEAST $300 MILLION A YEAR TO ESTABLISH A UNIVERSITY IN OHIO


       If entrepreneur Andrew Yang wins the presidential election, it could come with a $300 million-plus price tag for Harvard University.

       As a presidential candidate vying for the Democratic nomination, Yang isn't a frontrunner, but the underdog has had huge fundraising success and polls show his rank improving. Like the other presidential hopefuls, part of the candidate's platform addresses the cost of higher education.

       But Yang has something on his education agenda that no other candidate does.* The 2020 hopeful talked to Newsweek about a proposal that's entirely unique: making Harvard fork over millions to open another campus in the United States.

       Yang's plan would have any university with an endowment of more than $30 billion contribute one percent of its endowment to found and operate a new university in Ohio. Once that university is self-sustaining, the higher education institution would then establish a university in another community.

       For some time, Harvard was in a league of its own when it came to the $30 billion mark. The school continued to dominate when it comes to financials through the 2019 fiscal year, which bumped Harvard's endowment up to $40.9 billion. One percent of $40.9 billion, the amount Yang would make them pay, is $409 million.

       "Instead of opening outposts in China, Harvard could be opening campuses in the Midwest and using the new locations to expand and experiment with new models of education," Yang told Newsweek.

If Yang becomes president, he would require Harvard and any other university with an endowment of over $30 billion to contribute one percent to found a university in Ohio.

       He added that the current state of education incentivizes the richest universities to maintain their exclusivity instead of exploring new ways to "further their mission and serve the public."

       Details of the university that Harvard would be required to establish still have to be ironed out. Yang said it would be up to the Ivy League university to decide how it wanted to approach the higher education institution, including how it would be branded. Harvard told Newsweek it had no comment on Yang's proposal.

Yang added that if Yale University was "fortunate enough" to join the "$30 billion club," that school could also help finance additional universities.

       On Friday, Yale announced that its endowment earned a 5.7 percent investment return for the fiscal year ending on June 30. This increase brought the value of the endowment from $29.4 billion in 2018 to $30.3 billion. Newsweek reached out to Yale but did not receive a response in time for publication.

       "Someone joked that Yale is a hedge fund with a university attached," Yang said. "That is not an ideal use of funds."

       (With a $4.2 billion endowment, Yang's alma mater, Brown University, is unlikely to feel the effects of the policy anytime soon.)

       For Yang, the appropriate use of funds would be to increase the number of slots in each class and expand access. He's also advocated for additional support for Historically Black Colleges and Universities, reducing student loan debt and free or significantly reduced costs for community college, falling in line with other candidates.

       University endowments are made up of donations made to the school, which are intended to help fund certain aspects of the institution while being invested in a way that grows the principal amount. Given that the money is meant to both help the university and be an investment fund, many universities have strict guidelines on how the money can be spent.

       At both Harvard and Yale, money from endowments is used to fund a variety of things, including faculty salaries, scholarships and research. Although allocated spending fluctuates annually, each year, Harvard aims to keep spending from the endowment to between five and five and a half percent, while Yale stays between four and six and a half percent.

       So, why Ohio for a new university? It has the "right blend" of existing infrastructure and need, Yang said. Although, said Yang, one of a dozen locations, including Michigan, Florida and Missouri, would "make sense."
