That institute received an endowment, that was staggeringly well financed,
We should exceed, beat our previous batches, is an idea we romanced.
We set a target for ourselves, and some started driving others hard,
To fuel competition amongst ourselves, a leaderboard was on the card.
From each according to his stature, how well he has done in life,
For what purpose the funds are to be used, has led to an inevitable strife.
Those who lead by dollars, putting their money where their mouth is,
Will decide how to use this money, guaranteeing efficiency like in a biz.
The no-strings-attached donation, is a thing of the past now,
If you really care about the insti, you should call the shots- and how!
What 25 years of earning gap could not, 2 days of reunion did,
WA group split on basis of who pays, so that of leeches we can get rid.
When I ponder what I can give back, its neither money nor distinguished alumni fame,
Its just that I be worthy of this institution, that it feels pride, when on it, I lay my claim.
