I'd just give it to my alma mater. I learned a lot in college, greatly increased my analytic skills, learned from courses, research, and peers, and believe I came out a smarter and more capable person because of it. I don't doubt that a better university could be created, but I'm not sufficiently convinced of any particular idea to want to put my backing behind a new university. My alma mater has a lot of money, but a billion dollars could still make a big difference and be used to push them towards new ideas without starting from scratch.
