Brandeis University has lost large donors following its hosting former President Jimmy Carter, whose book Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid has caused a storm of protest. One student on the faculty-student committee said he was told the appearance cost the prestigious university $5 million.
"These were not people who send $5 to the university. These were major donors, and major potential donors," Brandeis professor Jonathan Sarna told the New York Jewish Week.
Carter's visit also cost the university $95,000 for logistics and security.
