My college accepts no government grants. They are afraid that the government would then want to regulate them more. They are accredited and follow education guidelines but they want no restriction on curriculum as they are a religious college. They survive on donations by many people and the founder set up a fund based on some very large investments. This fund is primarily where the college gets it's money to function. They have recently become stingy and cut back on the benefits that my father-in-law (he's a professor there) receives even though he's been with the college for about 20 years and has been there 3rd longest of any of the faculty and staff. They have treated him like dirt more recently and hired castoff professors for their sister college. The quality of the school had begun to seriously deteriorate the last year I attended and people are no longer treated as a person but a number and source of money. I won't donate now. If they return to their original heart and treat people - faculty and students alike - like real humans instead of a dollar sign, then I may donate. Not now though.
