MacKenzie Scott’s approach is a refreshing disruption of the usual pattern of enriching the already rich. Nothing against Harvard, which reported a 7% return on an endowment of $41 BILLION that generated nearly $3 BILLION in 2020 alone. However, while Harvard or Stanford would welcome another $10 or $50 million gift, that amount isn’t the same game changer as MacKenzie’s $7 million gift to Porterville College, $40 million to California State University at Northridge (both HSIs), or $50 million to HBCU Prairie View A&M.
