Chapter 148
"Trs. Carson, I have something to take care of off-campus so I sometimes ask for time off. I hope you can give me this privilege,” Jonathan said.
"Oh? You want the privilege of taking time off whenever you want? Can you tell me why?" Oliver smiled and asked.
He was also curious as to why Jonathan was brave enough to come to the rector and make this kind of request.
Also, it seems Jonathan is sure Oliver will agree.
“Because I run a business off campus, I will be quite busy.”
"Business? Mr. Walter, the university supports its students in starting their business. If you provide the university with relevant documents, the university can grant you that privilege after we have checked and approved it.”
“I don't want to do that. That's why I came to you, ” Jonathan said.
"Oh? Mr Walter , do you think I would agree?” "I'm sure you won't refuse, Mr. Carson." "What's the reason?" Oliver asked.
“Because I will donate 100 million to South River University, of which 50 million will be prepared as a poor student award fund, which in particular will be given to underprivileged students with good academic performance, while the other 50 million I will donate. is used to improve various university facilities. Mr Carson, what do you think?” jonathan said with a smile.
When Oliver heard what Jonathan said, he was clearly shocked.
Donating 100 million to South River University?
This was something that South River University had not encountered in years since it was first established.
There has never been such a precedent even among the leading universities in the country. South River University is at least in the top ten leading universities in the country, let alone South River University
After many years of standing, it has also cultivated many celebrities from all walks of life. They accept, all sorts of donations but most of them consist of only a few million dollars.
South River University has been established for many years, while the largest donation is from a student who graduated from South River University many years ago. Now he is a tycoon in the business world with billions of dollars, but he only donated 20 million to the university.
Now, a third-year student at the university actually said that he would donate 100 million to the university?
To be honest, Oliver himself did not believe it either.
In his opinion, Jonathan might be here to play chancellor as a fool.
"Trs. Walter, are you sure you want to donate 100 million to the university? And you're not just playing me? ” Oliver sat up straight and asked.
"of course! Otherwise, why would I come to you? Chatting? If I want to chat, wouldn't it be better if I went to chat with the female students? ” Jonathan said with a smile.
Oliver looked at Jonathan closely.
Jonathan showed no restraint that other students usually showed when they saw him. Instead, he showed a cynical attitude, proving that he was clearly not afraid of Oliver.
Is he the son of a noble family?
Maybe!
Can third graders make 100 million by starting a business? Oliver would never believe it.
If Jonathan was going to donate 100 million, how much money would he have?
1 billion?
Or 10 billion?
If Jonathan is not here to consider him a fool, then Jonathan must be the son of one of the noble families.
Plus, if the university could receive an additional 100 million in funding, they would be able to do a lot. They might even be able to rent some of the leading lights from the province.
It would be good to upgrade the university. Oliver's dream is to propel South River University into one of the top three prestigious universities in the country.
“Alright, Mr. Walter , if you actually donated 100 million to the university, then I'll give you this privilege. At the same time, I will thank you for your contribution to South River University. However, if you're here just to play me, don't blame me for doing things according to the rules. ”
