How Yale University meets the 2012 cycle
$403,563 requires both keys at once: grouped employer/industry YALE UNIVERSITY, and cycle 2012. LobbyVault keeps a Yale University industry hub and a 2012 election-cycle hub. Neither hub is this page. This URL is only the intersection. YALE UNIVERSITY is grouped employer text, not Yale as a PAC filer and not a count of every instructor. YALE, YALE UNIV, and school-within-Yale spellings can be other keys. 200 unique donors produced 580 itemized receipts in 2012, about 2.9 lines per donor.
Recipient committees and disclosed contributor names are not in these headline facts. Use the Yale University 2012 overlay for those rows.
8.10% of the YALE UNIVERSITY parent book
The parent grouping YALE UNIVERSITY totals $4,982,646 across every cycle in this table. 2012 holds $403,563, or 8.10% of that book. Other windows hold $4,579,083 (91.9%). Reading only 2012 understates the parent; reading only the parent hides this two-year cell.
Mean gift size near $696 and mean per donor near $2,018 belong to this cell only. They are not restated as the parent’s typical gift.
