Cycle 2012 without mixing other strings
FEC cycle 2012 is the two-year federal clock labeled 2012. Inside that clock, University of Chicago is one employer/occupation grouping among many. The 2012 election cycle hub shows other strings in the same window. This page keeps University of Chicago and 2012 named together so neither hub is mistaken for the join. 517 contributions and 176 donors are counts on itemized receipts grouped to UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO in that window, not a workforce census.
University of Chicago Γ 2012 holds $380,006 from 176 donors and 517 lines, 8.11% of the $4,684,875 parent. One hundred seventy-six unique donors are not a faculty census. The University Of Chicago 2012 overlay is the overlay. The University Of Chicago industry page is the parent grouping. The 2012 election cycle page is the cycle census. All FEC ties lists other joins.
Unitemized gifts and omitted rows
USAspending rows for the same calendar years are a different dataset. This join does not claim that $380,006 funded federal awards, or that federal awards funded the gifts. Campaign contributions are not federal awards. Geography or employer text on a contribution line does not convert the gift into an obligation.
Unitemized gifts and corporate treasury schedules are outside $380,006. LobbyVault does not treat 176 unique donors as a headcount of everyone associated with UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO in 2012. Mean gift size near $735 and mean per donor near $2,159 are ratios on this presidential-year cell. They are not a 10-K political-activity line. A one-cycle share of 8.11% is not a trend. The packet has no year-over-year series on this page.

Keep both join sides in every citation of the headline total. This /ties/ page is a snapshot of packet facts, not a substitute for live FEC.gov bulk files. Amended reports can move either side of the join; the newer extract controls. Internal links stay on the packet hrefs only. Unitemized activity and independent expenditures remain outside these totals.
