Benevolence (bə-nĕv'ə-ləns)



n. An inclination to perform kind, charitable acts.

We have acquired some cool equipment in our classroom thanks to the benevolence of a friend and colleague in Eugene, OR.

After three months, I've come to learn that there is really only one effective teaching strategy--bribery. Thus, the use of our new video camera and laptop computer is granted only when students demonstrate excellent behavior.
