It seems like there was a mismatch in expectations that goes to the heart of how universities and philanthropy work. The university thought it was getting a donation, along with some vanity conditions, comparable to naming a building or a chair, which it could fudge while spending the money on whatever it wanted. The foundation thought it was paying the university to carry out something very specific on its behalf. |

I think it's clear that the conditions were more than vanity, and were actually qualitative.
