The idea of paying back to the university is to:

A) to provide funds to help the university to become more prestigious, which then looks better on your resume when applying for a new job as you can proudly say that you went to that school and got what you learned from there - and the employer will acknowledge it for that paying you a premium. The Harvard-Yale Complex.

B) with larger donations in the millions, to make sure your name is somewhere at that prestigious university.
