Now I love those cowboys, I love their gold
Love my uncle, God rest his soul
Taught me good, Lord, taught me all I know
Taught me so well, that I grabbed that gold
I left his dead ass there by the side of the road, yeah

Re: Hobart 2020
I’m seeing a number of schools ( Navy , JHU...)posting in social media showing fall ball Practices. Anything happening in Geneva?
Re: Hobart 2020
Don't think that was JHU. Fall semester is entirely virtual, few if any students are on campus right now.catchnshoot wrote: ↑Wed Aug 26, 2020 10:51 am I’m seeing a number of schools ( Navy , JHU...)posting in social media showing fall ball Practices. Anything happening in Geneva?
Re: Hobart 2020
Problem is that Fidelity is not public so liquidity is an issue and from what I read in Barron's years ago much of the privately-held stock is in a Family Trust, so making a bigger donation is difficult.Farfromgeneva wrote: ↑Sat Aug 22, 2020 7:20 pmI’ve heard Abby Johnson gives money behind the scenes but with our endowment it clearly hasn’t been that much.
She’s worth an estimated $16Bn. 5% of that would be 4x our current endowment and push us to around $1Bn (and for what it’s worth probably up 10-20 spots in USNWR on that alone). If we’re low $200s, she can’t have given more than 1/10th of 1% (10 basis points, $16mm). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abigail_Johnson
If Fidelity ever went public we'd really see what her desire is.

Re: Hobart 2020
There’s plenty of ways to do it w private equity and assets held in trust. Borrow against it for liquidity with debt virtually free these days. Heck even a donation in kind. It’s just less tax efficient. But we’re talking about even 1/2 of 1% Is $75-$80Mm which would be a major increase to our current endowment on the order of a 35-40% increase. Point being it’s pretty hard to believe she’s made HWS anywhere near the top 100 on her list of priorities in life with where we are at vis a vis her wealth. Certainly her right but I find these quasi leaked stories of how she supports the school behind the scenes to be kind of bs and inclined to believe they are floated by administration to support a view they are being effective when every alum of the colleges knows they have been terrible at fundraising (and career services as well) for many decades.

Re: Hobart 2020
This is all rumor, but based on reliable sources at Hobart. First week is going pretty well. Of over 1000 tests, only 1 positive, and that was being retested because there was a likelihood that the person had already had COVID and was testing positive for residual antigens. That person had contact with only one other person, and both are quarantined until it is sorted out.
A few students have been sent home for not following protocols. I heard some were off campus students ... can't believe they were actually sent home, but maybe told they were not welcome on campus.
Gyms are still closed until they can be certified safe, but recreation starting in novel ways. I've seen exercise classes on the Boz,for example.
Lots of faculty teaching in person, but with masks, shields, etc.
Not sure how many students made it back in person. Some FR are deferring. Others are staying remote. Faculty friends say it is complicated trying to teach in-person and remote students at the same time.
In short, it is as good as it can be at the moment. No fall ball yet.

Re: Hobart 2020
Football staff has been collecting schedules and looks like they are trying to figure out a way to start some organized activities. Presumably minimal to start, but a start.

Let's hope he's half as productive as Brandon Shed, from nearby Palm Beach Gardens!

Actually (3) are from MA. Cam Kewley is from Boston but went to boarding school in VA. He played his club ball with 3D New England.

Re: Hobart 2020
Was just going by HS but good to know. Think one of the NJ guys, maybe Cardinalli, is actually from Pennsy, but can’t recall. Noticed there’s a goalie from Blue Ridge (love that part of Va, BTW) named Bland coming next year as well.
So w 3 Mass kids plus the existing roster, we have 11 total kids from Mass. Have to compare w NJ but that must be second to NY. Not that it means anything and of course LS has been a huge pipeline w Holden, Ryan, Cam and Andrew Von & Herlihy in just the past couple of years.

Looks like it’s all section 3. W Genny, JD (2x), Onondaga & Lowville.
There is a kid next year committed from section 9 w South Side HS and one from Mamaroneck. Also a Westhill and Cicero NS in that class

Re: Hobart 2020
Ontario County reporting a spike associated with HWS. Heard we went from 4 to 18 cases. 84 students in isolation (preventative). Rumor I heard from someone close to athletics said that fall sports are now completely done ... they were about to start some practices. It was inevitable, but I hope the preparations and planning bring it under control quickly.

Good to hear Greg and Ted, almost felt “normal”
Sounds like coach is really high on the first years
