million dollar Rockefeller gave $80 million (~$2.41 billion in 2023) to the University of Chicago[119] under William Rainey Harper, turning a small Baptist college into a world-class institution by 1900. He would describe the University of Chicago as "the best investment I ever made." He also gave a grant to the American Baptist Missionaries foreign mission board, the American Baptist Foreign Mission Society in establishing Central Philippine University, the first Baptist and second American university in Asia, in 1905 in the heavily Catholic Philippines.[120][121][16][14][15] Rockefeller's General Education Board, founded in 1903,[122] was established to promote education at all levels everywhere in the country.[123] In keeping with the historic missions of the Baptists, it was especially active in supporting black schools in the South.[123] Rockefeller also provided financial support to such established eastern institutions as Yale, Harvard, Columbia, Brown, Bryn Mawr, Wellesley and Vassar.

His General Education Board made a dramatic impact by funding the recommendations of the Flexner Report of 1910.[citation needed] The study, an excerpt of which was published in The Atlantic,[13] had been undertaken by the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.[
