According to an email from Lee C.– and we trust him on these things– Dawn Greene just gave Columbia “the largest gift ever received by any U.S. university for the development of a single facility.” The single facility being the Jerome L. Greene
Science Center dedicated to poking at the brain and stuff.

For those keeping score, that $200 million more towards building in Manhattanville. Maybe we should just turn over Morningside Heights to the August Rush people and call it a day.

That’s a picture of J-Ro, by the way.
