    After googling, the university's tuition fee is about 200,000 for 4 years. That means her 1B donation can cover 5000 degrees. It's a lot, but it's not forever. Happy for the students

    Your point is well taken. If they invest the $1 Billion in a fund and use the profits to cover tuition it might last a bit longer. And if graduates also give back to the school then it might sustain it further. :)

Someone is goin to pay for those expenses.The correct term is their tuition has been payed by the tax payers.

    So many people who are passionate in the medical field cannot pursue that career because of how high tuition is, so many potential doctors, physicians and nurses lost because of the money grab college is. And even for the people who pay tuition, they are stuck repaying loans even after retirement. This is something we should be striving for, if we want more people in these fields we need to make tuition more accessible for everyone. Whoever donated that 1B just changed the lives of an entire community.
