Why is UChicago so poor at fundraising?

<p>rhg3rd: Not sure whether MD giving rates is a key factor - I’d imagine most of the money given to medical schools/plants is from foundations, not necessarily specific MDs. Most of the money to UCSF probably does not come from MD alums, but probably from major foundations interested in giving to a hospital system.</p>

<p>UChicago, institutionally, is about the same size as Duke, Yale, and larger than MIT or Princeton. All these schools exceed (or, in Princeton’s case, at least match) UChicago’s fundraising efforts.</p>
