"What's the Mission?" AND the "Money money money" one

The first time I read this article, or collection really, I just skimmed through the names of organizations for ones that either cought my eye or were familiar to me and I was most suprised to see Cornish College of the Arts in the list. Most of the statements were those of theatre, dance and music companies. I just didn't expect to see an educational facility included. Also, I had never thought of this private institution to be a "non-profit" organization considering how much money moves in, out and through the school (as displayed by the palacital decor of the legendary Seventh Floor).

-----*SEGWAY*-----
Wow! The first sentence really says a lot. ITs sort of ironic to think that SO much money goes through "non-profit" organizations.
I found it very interesting that Phoenix, a city that has always been just two hours away from home, contributed $30 million more than a city like SEattle. I'll have to spend some time in Phoenix when I got back home.
