$223,357 is the headline for University of Utah in 2008, not the grouping’s all-cycle $4,848,699. Itemized individual receipts in this two-year window number 288 from 98 donors. Cite FEC.gov. The join explains a relationship between employer text and a cycle tag; it is not a university PAC, not an endowment figure, and not federal research awards to the campus.

Key figures

  • University of Utah Γ— 2008 is $223,357 in itemized individual contributions.
  • The cell includes 288 contributions from 98 donors.
  • 2008 is about 4.6% of the grouping’s $4,848,699 all-cycle total.
  • The label is self-reported form text (university employer text), not a PAC.
  • FEC gifts and federal award files remain separate datasets.

Two keys: University of Utah and 2008

The relationship is mechanical: stored employer text UNIVERSITY OF UTAH plus cycle year 2008. FEC.gov individual-contribution aggregates put $223,357 at that intersection, from 288 itemized gifts and 98 unique donors. No recipient names appear in this packet. Independent expenditures sit outside the cell.

University of Utah is university employer text, not a university PAC, not an endowment figure, and not federal research awards to the campus. U OF UTAH, UNIV OF UTAH, and UTAH are other keys. The FEC does not verify that the string matches a legal employer, a license, or a current job.

Readers who want the year without University of Utah use 2008 election cycle. Readers who want University of Utah without 2008 use University Of Utah. All FEC ties lists other two-dimension pages. 2008 is a presidential even-year window on FEC.gov; that calendar label does not explain the dollar cell.

Where 2008 sits on the University of Utah hub

4.6% is $223,357 divided by $4,848,699. That arithmetic uses only packet facts. The leftover 95.4% equals $4,625,342 and lives on other cycle pages for University of Utah. A mid-single-digit share (or any other share this packet happens to show) is not a peak-year claim.

$4,848,699 is a sum of itemized individual receipts grouped to UNIVERSITY OF UTAH across cycles in this table. It is not assets, payroll, or a federal award total. Sharing a calendar year with USAspending records does not turn these gifts into contracts or grants. Keep the 4.6% attached to University of Utah and 2008 together.
