Two dimensions meet here: the employer string University Of Michigan and the 2008 election cycle. The meeting is $323,180, built from 542 contributions and 234 donors on FEC.gov. Lifetime University Of Michigan storage is $6,962,522 (4.6% in this window). The page does not restate a hub; it explains the join — public-university employer text, not a campus PAC, a University of Michigan treasury gift, or Michigan State as a sibling campus string.
Key figures
- Itemized individual total $323,180 at University Of Michigan × 2008.
- 542 lines / 234 identities (mean $596 per line).
- $6,962,522 is all cycles; $323,180 is 2008 only (4.6%).
- Grouping type: public-university employer text.
- Campaign contributions are not federal awards.
University Of Michigan is one axis; 2008 is the other
An industry-cycle page is not a restatement of University Of Michigan and not a restatement of 2008. It is the cell where they meet: $323,180, 542 contributions, 234 donors. FEC.gov individual contribution aggregates by employer/industry grouping and election cycle are the source note.
On the employer side, University Of Michigan is public-university employer text. On the cycle side, 2008 is a two-year FEC window, not a single Election Day. Campus filers who typed a hospital, school, or U of M abbreviation sit in other keys. This cell is the stored employer UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN. Neighboring stored labels include U OF M, UMICH, UNIVERSITY OF MICH, MICHIGAN STATE, and named schools or hospitals on campus. LobbyVault does not merge those strings into $323,180. Gifts dated in either year of that window sit in $323,180.
Leaving either axis off the citation misstates the record. $6,962,522 is the lifetime University Of Michigan bucket. The 2008 hub is every grouping that year. The join is $323,180.
2008 is not the whole University Of Michigan story
University Of Michigan across all cycles is $6,962,522. University Of Michigan in 2008 is $323,180 — about 4.6%. The gap is $6,639,342. Closing that gap would require other cycle joins, which this packet does not list.
A reader who only opens the 2008 overlay still sees $323,180 for this string, not $6,962,522. A reader who only opens the industry hub still needs the year filter to recover $323,180. 2008 holds $323,180 of $6,962,522 for this string — about 4.6%. Other cycles hold $6,639,342 (95.4%). Folding those other cycles into a 2008 citation would misstate the record by $6,639,342.
