OT: Virginia Tech Endowment Growth and comprable schools

So the National Association of College and University Business Officers released their latest report on the size of Endowments for schools across the US, and their change since 2014.

Virginia Tech clocked in at #114 in the nation, with 817,000,000 approx. in market value, and a 2.7% increase in value since the year before when the value was about 796 Mil.

That places us 1 spot ahead of William and Mary with 811Mil, and 2 behind our closest ACC peer in Lville with 844Mil.

While not the end all be all, Endowment size is a good barometer for the direction of the university is heading in, so the growth is good.

The fact that we are working towards that 1 Billion number is also important, very few of the top 50 schools in the nation are below that line, most AAU schools are above that line, and half the ACC is above it, along with multiple other Virginia schools.

NC State, with 983 Mil and an 11% growth is charging hard for that line, though I want to say that figure is for the entire system not just NCST itself.
