But the lost donations might not hurt the schools as much as you might think — at least when taken in isolation. The donors blasting Penn also have given sums that, by any standard, are enormous. Schools could battle a reputational blowUnless the pile-on keeps coming, which it very well might, these schools' bottom lines could be just fine. "As prominent donors withdraw support, other donors may take that as a signal of the loss of institutional focus on education, and these many smaller donors may decide that they too should withdraw support," he added.

☆ Here's when all 8 Ivy Leagues began admitting minorities — and how they're responding to the Supreme Court's affirmative action ruling
  + stars: | 2023-06-30 | by ( Talia Lakritz | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +1 min
The Supreme Court ruled Thursday to end race-based affirmative action in college admissions. Ivy League presidents called the ruling "disappointing" and "unwelcome."

Here's when all eight Ivy League universities opened their doors to people other than white men — and how they're responding to the Supreme Court's decision.

☆ DeSantis' new memoir skips juicy details about his life that could emerge in a presidential bid. Here's what he left out.

DeSantis published his first memoir, "The Courage to Be Free," on TuesdayThe book is widely viewed as laying the groundwork for a presidential run. DeSantis doesn't mention his gap year between Yale and Harvard, when he taught at the elite Darlington School. DeSantis writes extensively about his legislative victories in his book, but not about the legal battles that have ensued. DeSantis writes nothing about the January 6 attack on the Capitol to overturn the election results, nor does he address Trump's false claims about election fraud. He also, without naming Trump, writes about "the dangers of truning over the country to the likes of Dr. Anthony Fauci" during the pandemic.

This as-told-to essay is based on a conversation with Michelle Tokunaga, a former NBC page who now works for Comcast in New York City. I had no idea what the NBC Page Program was or what a page even did when I applied to the prestigious 12-month fellowship. After a few more weeks of waiting, I got an email saying I'd gotten into the page program in October. They're trusting you to work SNL or The Tonight show — you have to be able to think on your feet under pressure.
