I remember when Harvard, which had a $25.6 billion endowment at the time, stopped offering free breakfasts for upperclassmen (this was 2009, I don't know if they have reinstated it). It was a big deal at the time; it even made the New York Times.

Trhtrsh, you have been hellbanned as of this [‡] comment. I'm not really sure why; HN might have changed their algorithm for banning, or you might have been banned for a bad submission.
