<prompt> Human: I graduated from a large university a few years ago and Im currently in the aggressive paydown phase of my student loans 88k to go!. I get incessant calls from my alumni foundation to donate to the endowment fund, and so far I have given them the cold shoulder. I have colleagues who say its their duty to give back, and that Im ungrateful for not donating. The way I see it, I shouldnt even be considering it until my loans are paid off. But even then, I dont know how I feel about giving extra money to a massive institution for a product my education that I already paid my fair share for.What do you do, rpersonalfinance?  <response>: My university had the unfortunate timing of always calling when I wasnt working. After the third Id love to donate, but Im unemployed right now they stopped calling me.
