How does the University of Chicago give $156,054 to a political candidate? Aren't they publicly funded and what about their status as a tax exempt institution?

The poster kinda didn’t give you all the information about the list. Only individuals can give contributions to Federal election candidates. The names on the list are merely employer/affiliation.

All direct campaign contributions are made by individuals. When you make a contribution, you have to provide the name of your employer, so the figure means that employees of the University of Chicago gave $156,054. You can serach Open Secrets data base to identify the names of the particular individuals at the University who gave.

Why does the University of Chicago, with a prominent conservative school of economics, give money to a big government socialist?

Poor University of Chicago, always confused for a public university...

The $156K does not include the $350K paid to Michelle Obamarama for supposedly “working” there. She didn’t. Maybe the dumbazz media couldlook into that. Obama is a FRAUD!
