Note: this wasn’t a matter of instincts. I wouldn’t reject a donor on instinct. I googled him and he already had a conviction. Rejecting a donor is financially equivalent to taking $ away from education and giving it to the donor. It is not easy or straightforward to weigh.

It would be a harder choice if a potential donor had been accused but not convicted. It’s not my role (nor
@codeorg’s) to play judge or jury. Meanwhile in today’s climate, mob opinions can form rapidly and divisively.Show this thread -
My job is to raise as much money as possible to support CS in schools, and rejecting a donor is financially equivalent to taking $ from education and giving it to the donor. I’m sure I will make other decisions that are unpopular, & I hope people recognize the difficult tradeoffs

I’m honestly okay with taking money from bad people and using it for a good cause. It’s a fine line to walk for non-profits.
