Thus far, $3.5 million has been collected, and library officials hope to raise another $1 million before construction begins in the fall. “We’re asking everyone to give whatever you can,” Dellenback said. To entice further tax-deductible donations, the library will place the names of contributors on plaques inside the new library. Depending on the amount of contributions, the plaques will be placed on book shelves, bookstacks, chairs, tables, benches and stair steps. The library will also sell coffee mugs ranging from $10-15. Frohnmayer continued from page 1 search for a cure for the disease. “What [the Frohnmayers] have been able to do in such a short time is nothing short of remarkable,” University spokeswoman Maureen Shine said. “This award speaks for their commitment to finding a cure not only for themselves but for many other families.” The Frohnmayers created a Fan coni Anemia family support group in 1985 for similarly afflicted fami lies. Today, it supports more than 460 families. Additionally, the cou ple co-wrote the book “Fanconi Anemia: A Handbook for Families and Their Physicians.” “Without them, families around the world wouldn’t have someone to turn to,” Roy said. 2 Sophomore Positions each for a 2-year term 1 Freshman Position* for a 1-year term ♦Fulfills the second half of a two year term.

Buy a mug.” The new 90,000-square-foot li brary will replace the current, cramped 37,000-square-foot li brary, built in 1959, on 13th Av enue between Charnelton and Olive Streets. “With the focus of involving the community in fund raising, we can truly make this library great,” Stafford said. “Our new library will be an emblem of community pride.” At Tliesday’s event, with televi sion cameras rolling, flash photos snapping and more than 90 people listening, McComack Elementary School fifth-grader Nichole Barnett described her school’s mural. “A couple of boys drew drag ons and iguanas because, well, you know boys,” Barnett said. “A lot of girls drew ladybugs.” Barnett said she drew pictures of hands and eyes “because that’s all you need to read.” She point ed out that the hands were paint ed different colors to indicate that the library will be open to people of all ethnic backgrounds. The bright murals, extolling imagination and reading, includ ed a series depicting the new li brary as a universe of knowledge containing planets of fiction, non fiction, history and biography. As part of his committment to increasing literacy among youths, Torrey thanked the children for the murals and encouraged them to read. “If you can’t read, you can’t succeed,” he said. President Frohnmayer is a founding director of the National Marrow Donor Program and serves on the board for the Fred Hutchin son Cancer Research Center. Lynn Frohnmayer is the former coordinator of the family support group for Fanconi Anemia. She also served as a national consult ant and trainer for foster care re placement programs and co founded the Lane County Relief Nursery, a nationally recognized center for treatment of families and children at risk of child abuse and neglect. “It’s advocates like Dave and Lynn that make medical research as beneficial as it is,” ResearchlAmerica spokesman Matthew Bowdy said. Among the seven other recipi ents of the Research!America’s 1999 Advocacy Awards are Rep. John Edward Porter, R-Ill., Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pa., and Parade magazine publisher Walter An derson. “It’s a very prestigious list [the Frohnmayers] are on,” Bowdy said. A second national award will be presented to the Frohnmayers on April 6. The Americans for Medical Progress Educational Foundation is recognizing the couple for their efforts as medical research supporters at a banquet in the nation’s capital. The Frohnmayers were also honored as the 1998 First Citizens of Eugene for their contributions and service to the community. “They are tireless advocates,” Shine said, “and the awards are evidence of that.” Give Another Couple th of Parenth Consider being an Egg Donor 008838 Healthy Women 21-32 years of Non-Smokers Limited Time Commitment Compensation Provided $2,500 Call: OHSU (503) 418-3700 OHSU is an equal opportunity, affirmative action institution PO.
