Endowment Highlights
The university's endowment consists
of restricted donations and internal
allocations whose principal must be maintained in perpetuity. In addition
to maintaining the principal, the
university protects the endowment's
total economic value from inflation
by limiting the amount of income that may be expended annually.
The investment income generated
from endowment can be spent only in accordance with the various purposes established by the donors and/or the
university's Board of Governors. Some
of these purposes include providing
scholarships, fellowships and bursaries
to students.
The endowment has grown over the years from a market value of $138.5 million in 1990 to a market value of $672.7 million ten years later. The overall growth in the endowment is attributable to donations, the leasing of university property for the construction of market housing and investment returns.
