It's not a private organization, it's a charity. In exchange for not paying taxes, they've given up the right to spend the money as they see fit.

I was talking about the people giving them money, for example by paying them for their education.

If the discussion is about removing charity status from Yale, it would be a different thing. As I see it, Yale is offering a service and people voluntarily decide to pay for it, so removing that option would be authoritarian.
