<p>^ Actually, take it up with National Science Foundation.</p>
<p>NSF defines JHU APL as a Division<a href=“one%20of%20nine%20divisions/schools%20of%20JHU”>/U</a> of the university owned and operated by it’s Board of Trustees. (That’s why you can include APL in the totals)</p>
<p>The Federal Government (Department of Energy) owns LBNL, LLNL, LANL and Berzerkley and other private companies is merely a contracted institutions with an agreement to manage hiring of staff/world class researchers (that’s what Cal is good for) ***for ***the Federal gov’t.
Conclusion: NSF recognizes that JHU APL is not a defacto lab like Caltech JPL (which handed ownership of JPL to NASA in 1950’s). NSF also recognizes JHU Med to be a part of the JHU University (Durrrrr). </p>
<h2>Plus, most of what happens at APL is classified and has nothing to do with fund raising efforts.</h2>
<p>You can’t selectively add Cal + UCSF only.</p>
<p>If you add UCSF, then you have to add the rest of the UC System ($1.2 billion dollars), No way can you pick and choose.</p>
