Yes by this logic if a poor person doesn't have food it's okay for a billionaire to make him dance a jig for them to in order to eat. If a school doesn't have funds for buildings a billionaire should be able to mandate that they teach Charlie-Munger thought for one hour a day in order to stay open.

I don’t think this building is the equivalent of either of those things. More like it’s the equivalent of a billionaire is a pescatarian and they only offer to provide sushi meals to people and refuse to buy hamburgers.

I'm not drawing an equivalence, I'm making a comparison: Why should those be forbidden and the others allowed?

Because dancing a jig is demeaning while living in a comfortable, safe apartment that doesn’t have a window seems fine to me.

I think that forcing unreasonable actions as a condition of charity is bad.

Does not having windows seem fine for the students? That's the question.

Being forced to live without windows because it makes a billionaire happy seems pretty demeaning (and unreasonable) to me.
