Wow, the Doerrs give a billion plus to our alma mater and there are more negative comments than positive ones. I’m grateful they gave money to Stanford at all. It’s their money and they get to choose what they do with it. If you all want to expand the undergrad population and have another billion to donate, I’m sure something could be worked out. In the meanwhile, I’m hopeful their donation sparks useful research in sustainability and climate science.

Quite the contrary, I appreciate it very much and hope their generosity does fund research in sustainability and climate science, especially as my client is working in those areas (graphene based quantum heat engines and energy storage systems). Would be a shame if it went for opulence and grandeur. 

BTW, where's that graphene thread when I need it?
