This is just a frightening scenario given the current state of our economy. We are already in a tough position financially as a school and as a country. I would assume that endowment money is invested diversely but to even find that 50 million is in jeopardy is scary. I would hope that this would serve as a reminder to not only the school, but to all of us to be very careful where we invest money.
