A quick definition of donation:

A donation is a gift given to help others. It can be money or something else that someone gives to another person or organization without expecting anything in return. Once the person or organization receiving the donation accepts it, it cannot be taken back. Sometimes, people can get a tax break for making certain types of donations.

A more thorough explanation:

A donation is a gift given to a person or organization, usually for a charitable purpose. It is a voluntary transfer of property, often money, from the donor to the recipient with no expectation of receiving anything in return.

For a donation to be considered valid, the donor must knowingly and intentionally give the property to the recipient, who must accept it. Once the donation is accepted, it becomes irrevocable.

Donations can be tax-deductible if they meet certain criteria set by the IRS.

  • Donating money to a local food bank to help feed those in need.
  • Giving clothes to a homeless shelter to help those without adequate clothing.
  • Donating toys to a children's hospital to bring joy to sick children.

These examples illustrate the concept of a donation - giving something to someone else without expecting anything in return. In each case, the donor is giving something to help others in need, and the recipient is accepting the gift with gratitude.

My berkeley paragraph finally disappeared. I definitely think it is just an indicator that they are actively reviewing files, and does not mean anything about A, WL, or Rs

UMN under review! As predicted, decisions are gonna come out early December
Minus those random R decisions from UMN yesterday though right? I wonder what happened there. I don’t think I’ve seen a school start the season out with anything but As on here
almost all of my apps have been UR for 6 weeks at this point I feel exhausted waiting for them to finish
Irvine is being snobby and wont start any review until end of Nov.
Yeah, it’s tough. I’m distracting myself by playing good video games after work :)
im distracting myself by schizo-scrolling r/lawschoolamissions and every conceivable data point on this godforsaken website
it is not working
Haaa I naturally want to do that too. I’m trying to stop. They need a surgeon general’s warning on this site for perspective law students
i spend more time on here then anything else trying to rationalize that the waves from last year will match waves for this year (they won't) and that the stats of people with the same stats are indicative of my own (they aren't)
There aren't many people in my stat range so I pretty much know every result in my range after being on here for a few years
