Key figures
- Columbia University × 2010 is $263,276 in itemized individual contributions.
- The cell includes 511 contributions from 140 donors.
- 2010 is about 3.0% of the grouping’s $8,849,740 all-cycle total.
- The label is self-reported form text, not a university endowment and not a Columbia University PAC.
- FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.
Columbia University crossed with 2010
Employer groupings sit on one axis; election cycles sit on the other. Rows that match both — Columbia University and 2010 — sum to $263,276. 511 itemized contributions and 140 unique donors produced it. The total is not an official organization disbursement and does not name recipients. Independent expenditures and committee transfers live in other FEC tables. COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY is grouped employer text. The 2010 filter keeps receipts in that cycle whose employer field collapsed to this key. It does not split faculty, staff, students, or medical-center units.
Neither the Columbia University hub nor the 2010 election cycle hub is this number; each hub drops one of the two keys. The Columbia University hub is the year index for this string. COLUMBIA UNIV, medical-center labels, and PROFESSOR occupation titles stay on their own keys if filers used them. Federal research awards on USAspending are a different file and are not funded by these itemized gifts.
3.0% of the Columbia University roll
The grouping’s stored total across cycles is $8.8 million ($8,849,740). The 2010 slice of $263,276 is about 3.0% of that running sum. Other even-year windows hold the remaining 97.0%. Treating 2010 as the Columbia University FEC story would ignore that remainder.
Treat $8,849,740 as the denominator for the 3.0% share. It is not market capitalization, not revenue, and not proof of a multi-year political program. The industry hub is the year index for this string. This tie keeps 2010 from being folded silently into $8,849,740.

- Is this Columbia University’s PAC or an official account?

- Where is the overlay for the Columbia University 2010 join?
- Open Columbia University 2010 for the cycle overlay, Columbia University for the grouping hub, and the 2010 election cycle for the year without this employer filter.
