In the seminar, students split into groups and choose a nonprofit organ ization to research throughout the term. Near the end of the term, each group presents its cause to the class and the students chose where to do nate the grant, which is sponsored by Wells Fargo bank. Freshman Zoe Monahan, who repre sented Committed Partners for Youth, said visiting and researching the organ ization made it all worth it, even though the class was a lot of work. "I found that I care way too much about our program," she said after her presentation. Committed Partners for Youth pro vides mentors for at-risk middle school and high school youth. Monahan and her group members told the class that the need for mentors is increasing as state, federal and local funds for the program are decreasing. "1 didn't realize how much of an impact just a teeny bit of money could have," Monahan said. When the class voted, Committed Partners for Youth tied with Women space, which provides services to bat tered women and their children, but the class opted to revote and not split the money, Assistant Professor Renee Irvin said.

Irvin, who created the class last year, said Committed Partners for Youth was a finalist during last year's class, but the organization didn't re ceive the money. The funds went to Start Making a Reader Today and Greenhill Humane Society. "It was pretty nice that they were able to win this year," she said. This year's other finalists includ ed the Children's Miracle Network, the Boys and Girls Club Inc. and Looking Glass. "They're all great organizations and they would all benefit from this," Monahan said. Freshman Josh Tschirgi, who repre sented the Boys and Girls Club Inc., said he chose to vote for the Chil dren's Miracle Network, which raises funds for children's hospitals. "They seem like they have one of the biggest impacts on a child start ing its life out on the right foot," he said. "That's an incredibly impor tant foundation." He said overall he has learned a lot about how to donate money wisely. "I learned that there are literally hun dreds of viable and worthy organizations that could use philanthropic support," he said. "If I plan to be a financially suc cessful person, which I do, I'll know how to be a wise philanthropist." Irvin said she hopes to continue teaching the seminar, depending on whether she can find a sponsor for the $5,000. "The class really needs the gift in or der to make it work," she said. On March 8, the students will pres ent the donation to the organization at a brunch also sponsored by Wells Fargo bank. "I have to hand it to Wells Fargo for being so generous," Irvin said. Irvin said aside from teaching stu dents about the art of giving, the class provides an opportunity for freshmen to interact with each other in a small er classroom setting. "It's part of the freshman seminar program, which is really the only op portunity they have to take small classes their freshman year," she said.

EMU continued from page 1 renovation out of a clause in the ASUO Constitution that would have replenished the funds. In stead, the budget committee de cided to include the funds in its 2004-05 budget. The recall also enabled the budg et committee to include funds for repairs to the Outdoor Program's bam that had been put on hold due to uncertainty regarding the University's plans for a new basket ball arena, EMU Programs Repre sentative Gabe Shaughnessy said.
