Cake bake rakes in scholarships now stuaems can nave their cake, eat it and help a student scholarship fund too. Parents are responding favorably to an ASUO pilot program to sell birthday cakes to their children on campus. Birthday Cakes on Campus, spon sored by the ASUO and the Universi ty Parents Association, mailed 400 order forms to parents and received more than 20 percent back, says John Moore, acting executive direc tor of the ASUO Foundation, which was formed to handle cake revenue. The revenue will be distributed as scholarships. The enterprise will deliver ice cream or layer cakes to the students, with prices from $12 to $25. Moore says he would have con sidered a 10 percent response suffi cient to continue the business. Cake orders will generate about $500 for the foundation this year, he says. Vintage clothing displayed at show Fashions will be displayed at the Vintage Style Show today at noon in the EMU Forum Room. Clothing from Puttin’ on the Ritz, Old Friends and The Brass Hanger will be displayed at the fund-raising event for Women in Transition, an ASUO-funded program. Admission is $1.50 or $1 if “vintage clothing" is worn. The business is targeting the parents of students living in University-approved housing because such students tend to be younger and parents are more likely to buy cakes for their children dur ing the first two years at the Univer sity, says Moore, who also directs the Offices of Executive Coor dinator and Student Advocacy. The business will send 5,000 order forms during fall term to the target group, Moore says. He ex pects to sell about 1,050 cakes next year. Cake orders trickled in at first, but Moore says orders began to pick up shortly afterward. The business will experiment with several marketing strategies this summer to see what prompts more consumer response, he says.
