NEWS The Michigan Daily - Friday, October 28, 2005 - 7 ENDOWMENT Continued from page 1 Michigan Difference campaign, designed to increase charitable donations with the goal of raising $2.5 billion, has already raised more than $1.89 billion. She hopes for $800 million of that to be funneled into the endowment. Last year, $25 million of Business School bene- factor Stephen Ross's $100-million gift to the Uni- versity went into the endowment. The endowment has grown rapidly in recent years. In 1995, it was worth $1.3 billion. It now ranks 11th in the country among university endowments. Still, it pales in comparison with Ivy League heavyweights such as Harvard University, which leads the pack with an endowment of about $25.9 billion. Yale University's endowment is $15.2 bil- lion, a distant second to Harvard's. Prestigious private universities have traditionally relied more heavily on their endowments than public universities, meaning the University of Michigan's chances of catching up are slim. "Harvard and Yale just had a hundred years on us," Slottow said. CHAIR Continued from page 1 operating it won't be any problem even though Ben hasn't had any experience in financial markets on Wall Street," Gramlich said. "Even though he doesn't know everyone on Wall Street, most of his papers study markets, so he understands them very well." Bernanke will take over from Greenspan, who is legendary in his handling of the nation's fiscal pol- icy, at the beginning of February. Gramlich said he doesn't expect major policy shifts when Bernanke takes over, adding that the biggest challenge Ber- nanke will face is the nation's large budget deficit. "I think personally he can handle the problem as well as anybody else," he said. Former University Provost Paul Courant, who now teaches economics and public policy at the University, also voiced his support for Bernanke. "He is a very able man and very articulate and has spent several years on the Federal Reserve, so only being in academia previously shouldn't really affect his capability to perform well," Courant said. Courant said almost everyone in the econom- ics department is pleased with the decision to go with Bernanke. Business School Prof. Claes Fornell said Bernan- ke's perceived weaknesses are actually strengths. "The fact of Bernanke only being in academia is actually a very positive aspect, because it will be a fresh person without too many political ties in Washington," he said. In contrast with President Bush's other major nomination - that of Harriet Miers, who yester- day withdrew her bid for the U.S. Supreme Court after failing to win the support of lawmakers from both parties - the bulk of the initial reactions to the appointment of Bernanke both in academia and politics have been highly optimistic outside of the University, with both Republicans and Democrats praising the choice. "We need a careful, nonideological person who understands that the Federal Reserve's main job is to fight inflation, and Ben Bernanke seems to fit that bill," Sen. Charles Schumer (D- New York), the highest-ranking Democrat on the Senate Banking Committee, told The Washing- ton Post on Monday. the michigan daily HUNT PARK BLOCK. 3 bdrm., 1 bath., OLD WEST SIDE duplex.
