$110 million is nothing to Yale. It won’t bankrupt Yale.
I’d settle for it getting their minds right about how they handle things. Although the Oberlin College case shows us even a substantial monetary judgement doesn’t necessarily do that.
Probably not but it will help cutback on the amount of posterboard the chimps will have to make protest signs.
from a site of their’s on the internet:
“Yale’s endowment earned a 0.8% investment return, net of fees, for the year ending June 30, 2022, earning $266 million in investment gains. After $1.6 billion of spending distributions to the operating budget, the endowment value decreased from $42.3 billion on June 30, 2021 to $41.4 billion on June 30, 2022.”
As you indicated, $110,000,000 is baseline noise to them. Still, it was nice seeing Oberline squirm, and adding Yale to that list would be kinda nice as well.
Indeed, their endowment is about $42 billion. Plus some insider Wall-street paper-money political crony will simply give them another $110 million.
I hope he wins but I think it’s appropriate to point out that the $110M is a number his lawyer pulled right out of the air. It may or may not have any relation to actual recover ale damages. Ditto each and every time you hear one of these dollar labels put on a lawsuit
