Reply to comment by tholdawa in What is the worst university in New Haven? by gr34tguy

Yale is not comparable to other non-profit universities (aside from Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, MIT, etc). They have the second largest endowment in the country at over $42 billion…

For context, 20-30 minutes away at Quinnipiac (where president Lahey set a record for highest-paid college president ever), the endowment is under $1 billion.

Yale has too good of a deal with the city of New Haven, and owes more to the city’s residents.
