Stanford's 1990 Graduates Didn't Wait Long To Give Back in a Big Way.
Carr, Sarah
Chronicle of Higher Education, v47 n9 pA34-35,38 Oct 27 2000
Reports that the class of 1990 of Stanford University (California) has pledged a record total for a class 10 years out of college. Suggests that Stanford's close relationship to Silicon Valley is responsible but that the volatility of the stock market illustrates the risks involved in fund raising from young Internet entrepreneurs. The $7.5 million total included three seven-figure pledges. (DB)
