Alumni giving down by 15% - News

Alumni giving down by 15% - News: "Gifts from alumni have dropped 15 percent from last financial year but have weathered the financial crisis better than the University's overall private donation total, which is down 23 percent so far, said Peter Vaughn, executive director of Alumni and Development Communications. The alumni participation level has fallen 7 percent this year, and the Office of Alumni Affairs and Development Communications has also received fewer major gifts from former students this year, he noted."
