Harvard's internal study shows otherwise. Calling the forthcoming rise in disposable income in the upper tax brackets "perfectly enormous," Boland also insists that, in the huge 50 per cent and under tax categories, the "cost" of giving to Harvard should rise by way less than $100 per every $1000 donated.
