Not with my money!
Washington Monthly, May, 2005 by Charles Peters
You may remember an item in this column a couple of years ago about how Princeton had taken a fund, now worth $600 million, donated by Charles and Marie Robinson to help prepare students for careers in public service, and used it for other purposes. Well, it appears Princeton is not getting away with it.
The Robinsons sued; the suit attracted publicity. The result: Donations from alumni dropped 45 percent last year while giving to other colleges and universities rose 3.4 percent.
