Call me crazy, but I have a rumbling in my tummy that says a nice chunk of this donation will be headed that way. CJF has been criticized and called pointless since its inception. I for one think it can be very useful; it just hasn't been around long enough to make an impact yet. Hopefully, with the funding it will now receive, the CJF can live up to its potential.<BR/><BR/>With all the finger pointing, however, I am slightly nervous that if we do invest it in CJF, it just may end up being wasted. I hope this won't be the case.<BR/><BR/>All in all, it was an awesome (in the full sense of the word) donation on behalf of Mr. Stanton. I hope the cash is put to good use, whether in CJF, student affairs, or any other capacity. Who knows... maybe we'll even get a tuition break.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12970718.post-1158185044041821042006-09-13T18:04:00.000-04:002006-09-13T18:04:00.000-04:00huzzah! at least someone is giving money to school...huzzah! at least someone is giving money to schools, they need it just so much.<BR/><BR/>this is a good thing, hopefully we'll see more of it in the future.Looking Forwardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04876831969877780546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12970718.post-1158181585087225592006-09-13T17:06:00.000-04:002006-09-13T17:06:00.000-04:00Hmmm...now the question is, what will they do with...Hmmm...now the question is, what will they do with this money?
