“I’m not sure which part of that I would want to give back”

IMO
The parts you might consider wanting to give back would be the timing of their campus expansion to occur right before the baby bust years (not the expansion itself, but just that particular timing),and the overly conservative investment strategies referenced in the link .Because these eroded the growth of the endowment . You could have this same wonderful place today except with more money to spend, for whatever worthwhile purposes the university could find to use it for. Class sizes, faculty salaries, financial aid, summer study, etc, no doubt they could do something worthwhile with more funds.
