I did up until a few years ago. Wasn’t much so I doubt they miss it

They went a little too woke for me

No, I choose to donate to Airman, both Active and retired of the United States Air Force, through the Air Force Assistance Fund though! These charities help Airman in need while serving or long after retirement, wow! (Hint hint)

Hell no. If they got money for lazy rivers and an entire diversity department then they obviously don’t need my cash.

My college lit up their football stadium in the colors of George Floyd’s high school, so no.

I paid them money, I got an education (sorta) / degree. As far as I’m concerned, our transaction is complete.

No. I send them a quarterly invoice for the bogus parking tickets they gave me.

I'll be graduating soon.

DEI and anti-whiteism is full blown here at LSU.

I'll never donate

Yeah, it's sad to see what LSU and most universities have become. It wasn't like that in the 90s when I attended. Hard pass on sending them my money.

Not anymore. They went woke.

My charitable contributions go to St Jude Children’s Hospital.

You said you make 300k a year. You're also a complete idiot so I assume it's the degree getting you the money and you can't donate $100 a year.

You're the worst pretend rich person behind babytac

They charge entirely too much for an education. I’m not voluntarily giving them more money

Nope, they got paid for my education and they are collecting a ton from current students. Thankfully they keep mailing and calling my parents and haven't managed to get my address and phone number yet. My parents have tried to get them to stop, but they don't,

Same.

I give a good bit to my high school. I’ve given a little here and there to undergrad/post-grad but not much.
