i think the endowment wars for non-privates (especially the established "elite") are a dick-measuring bubble

the war basically mimics the terrible race to the bottom in terms of ripping off US taxpayers via government loans (which includes inc costs)

I agree that LSU is never going to be Stanford (or even Ohio State) but still, an endowment is important for the continuing competitiveness of a University. I mean, should public schools just shutter up because they're not the Ivy League? Of course not. LSU is putting itself in jeopardy of not being around in its current form in 100 years because of its frankly embarrassing endowment, especially considering how little it gets from the State.

Very, very true.
