Alumni donations commended
By Kirsten Bolin
Of the Emerald
The University’s Alumni Annual Giving Pro
gram has been named a finalist in the 1984 U.S.
Steel Alumni Giving Incentive Program.
An increase in unrestricted alumni donations
from $175,263 in 1981-82 to $285,447 in 1982-83
qualified the University for recognition in the im
provement category. Unrestricted donations are
those not earmarked by the donor for a specific
use. These unrestricted funds may be distributed
by the University Foundation’s board and presi
dent for financing scholarships, research, the
Alumni Association and other student programs.
Joseph Farmer, Annual Fund director, at
tributes the increase in donations to telefund
volunteer efforts, a newly installed computer
system and fund raising efforts by individual
schools and departments within the University.
Farmer said the actual selection was made by
the Council for the Advancement and Support of
Education (C.A.S.E.), which bases its selections
on year-to-year increases in fund-raising results.
The number of Univerisity alumni making dona
tions increased 77.4 percent in 1982-83, while
total dollars collected went up 64.8 percent in the
same time period.
The Annual Fund Telefund enlists student
organizations to call alumni across the United
States and ask for their support of the Annual
Fund. Telefund volunteers have collected
$148,929 in alumni donations for the Annual
Fund since the idea was put into action two years
ago.
Fund raising efforts are already under way,
and an even bigger response from University
alumni is anticipated this year, Farmer said. Any
student organizations interested in participating
in the Annual Fund Telefund this year may con
tact Joe Farmer at the University Foundation,
686-3016.
