Philadelphia Inquirer | 09/20/2004 | Donations to colleges on upswing: "On Sept. 11, 2001, Haverford College's chief fund-raiser, Jill Sherman, was on her way to meet a wealthy college alumnus at the World Trade Center in hopes of securing a $1 million gift toward the school's ambitious capital campaign.
Instead, she became an eyewitness to one of the nation's worst horrors, and the alumnus she was supposed to meet was among those killed.
The tragedy took the lives of several notable Haverford alumni, and in the aftermath, the school's seven-year $200 million capital campaign stalled."
