What an absolute legend
On the surface it looks an amazing gift but time will prove the 1 billion dollars will go to waste, it will achieve zero, the universities are out of control
Tuition fees shouldn’t exist.
sadly , the students HATE her …..cos she's a Jew …
this is America 2024 .
If more billionaires were like this we'd have a better society instead of them hoarding all the wealth for themselves
Let’s make clear- the US spends $800 billion per year on its military- to have 880 military outposts around the world and spent $3 trillions on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
If $ 1billion can do so much good deed for the young generation I can’t imagine what 3 trillions can do for the world. 😢
what the government should be paying for
Donations are Taxes. It is designed to protect donors, and so as recipients from FRAUD, LAUNDERING, LAUNDERED MONEY, FAKE or UNIDENTIFIED MONEY from SYNDICATES. Recipients of donations MUST Always SECURE RECORDS, since colleges, Universities has RULES regarding DONATIONS, its PURPOSE and its IMPORTANCE. There are many donors and Colleges/Universities that had problems in receivership of DONORS/Donations, either POLITICAL INTERESTS-Not politically motivated. THIS SERVES As WARNING.*****
Hey Mr Scott whatcha gonna do..whatcha gonna do make our dreams come true!
🖤🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿💯. #AsOne
What about me???
Shame on the government that education has got to this point, but thankfully someone rich enough with the heart to pay back to people of the future generations, need more people like her in the world.
So is this the only example of trickle down economics that works?
That's lovely❤
Amazing! Hope it produces the best and brightest doctors.
can international students also study free?
Yay!! ❤
That was nice of her. Her husband was worth 3 billion
The reason I went to school in Germany, most public universities offering medical degrees in Germany don't charge their students for tuition.
Wow!
Yeah they should be thanking her husband
I hope these people took advantage of this and learnt how to produce the finest and most addictive crack on earth…..
Why are these news channels using kids. Is it because nobody watches them
These Universities are just money hungry…..they don't look out for the genuinely talented…..only the students that can afford it! 👎
I wonder why other billionaires for so many years won't do the same for schools.
So how did a Dr get billions of dollars?
Most of them is palistine supporter
Let’s hope people from all over the world can study
