What a $300 million donation to Harvard will get you:
..your name ...
..your name on a grad school. The university is changing the name of its grad school to the Harvard Kenneth C. Griffin Graduate School of Arts and Sciences after—you guessed it—hedge fund billionaire Ken Griffin made a $300 million donation to Harvard University. Griffin has now given more than $500 million in total to Harvard, where he graduated in 1989 before making his billions and buying a $43.2 million copy of the Constitution at his son’s request. Griffin’s $150 million gift to Harvard in 2014 for financial aid remains the largest single donation for undergrad assistance, according to Bloomberg.

When Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm came to Oklahoma last week, it wasn’t just to deliver a $7 million research grant to Oklahoma State University but to also talk with tribal leaders and the University of Oklahoma about converting their hydraulic fracking wells to thermal wells.
Geothermal energy has been the focus of scientific research at OU and last year scientists began a study of heating schools in Tuttle with geothermal heat. Granholm, accompanied by second gentleman Doug Emhoff, was interested in the development of harnessing geothermal energy for the benefit of tribal communities.
