Williams College's Financial Muscle Grows with Impressive Endowment Return

With more than $2 billion in investment assets under its belt, Williams College put distance between itself and much of its competition last year by posting one of the strongest endowment returns in higher ed. The investment performance corresponded with strong growth in Williams' core academic operations. Net tuition revenue at the liberal arts college was $78.5 million, up 6.7 percent from the $74.4 million reported in fiscal 2014.
