John J. Miller on John M. Olin Foundation on National Review Online

John J. Miller on John M. Olin Foundation on National Review Online
Foundation’s End
The last days of John M. Olin’s conservative fortune.

Sometime this fall, the board of the John M. Olin Foundation will meet one last time and approve a final round of grants. By the end of the year, the foundation will release its staff and close its office. There will be a few checks to write in 2006, and perhaps several more as late as 2007 or even 2008. But for all practical purposes, the foundation will shut down — and one of the conservative movement’s most important institutions will cease to exist.
