Yeshiva University has downgraded it exposure to Bernard Madoff-related losses, reporting that much of the reported $110 million was based on "fictitious" profits. The university now estimates its losses are closer to $14.5 million.
Two thoughts: $14.5 million is still a ton of money, and don't fake profits still count if the school based projects, salaries, and financial aid programs on what it thought it had?
