ACTA Mentioned in Washington Examiner
John Horak writes about the Koch Foundation gift in the Washington Examiner,
"Koch agreed to fund economics professors at FSU, on the condition that an advisory committee - mutually agreed to by the department and the foundation - vet and approve a pool of eligible candidates.Now, because of hostile press coverage, the gift is under attack, with some faculty members claiming Koch has violated their academic freedom. Who's right? Who's wrong? What's a donor to do?
These are questions that drive the second edition of the "American Council of Trustees and Alumni's Intelligent Donor's Guide to College Giving," hot off the presses.
Colleges rightly reject efforts to make them comply with someone's particular political, religious or personal agenda. But donors rightly do not want to support programs they don't believe in. After all, it's their money."
