Sanctioned Chinese Entities Funneled $300 Million To US Campuses

By Atom Brief Editors

The list, compiled from Education Department disclosures, includes Huawei, FutureWei and a Chinese defense-linked university among nearly 700 flagged donors.

• Huawei and FutureWei made 156 donations totaling $42 million to US schools.
• Beijing Institute of Technology, one of China's 'Seven Sons of National Defense,' gave $49 million.
• China ranks second among foreign university funders worldwide, behind only Qatar, at $6.8 billion total.

Why it matters: Self-reported numbers are always the smallest figure a university can get away with disclosing.
