Titan: The Life of John D. Rockefeller, Sr. whole source · open book
Though Rockefeller studiously avoided the campus and visited only three times (1897, 1901, and 1903), he got little credit for this self-abnegation. The public was quick to pounce on his every move as yet another ruse. As Gates wearily recalled: The people of Chicago had ceased to give except in driblets.
