Greater Fund Over Halfway To Record
The Greater University Fund has passed the half-way mark toward matching last year's record contributions before the end of the present fiscal year. April 30.
More than 7,000 alumni and friends of KU have contributed to the fund, which helps maintain and support higher education here. Last year's contributors numbered 13,161.
"WE HAVE set a record every year," Don Dugan, assistant secretary of the GUF, said. "That is, each year we get more than we did the last."
The GUF has just completed their second mailing of the present fiscal year, Dugan said. Each mailing is sent to the active members of the Alumni Association.
The Fund, begun in 1953, is jointly sponsored by the Endowment and Alumni Associations. It has received a total of $401,000 during the 1963-64 fiscal year. This amount greatly exceeded the $41,000 given to the fund during its first year in existence.
The present mailing is a brochure entitled "When You Invest in the University of Kansas." The brochure explains the use made of the contributions to the fund.
Money given to the University, the brochure explains, is often put to use the very day it is received.
Many contributors specify the way in which their gift is to be used, while others leave the decision up to the discretion of the University.
KU Boasts Faculty, Staff from 22 Nations
A HIGH percentage of the contributions received are used for scholarships and loan programs.
Other uses of the gifts are for books for the library, to further the education of faculty members and graduate assistant instructors, or for new equipment, special research, and expansion of campus lands and facilities.
Contributions to the fund are received through alumni gifts, through bequests, and in honor of the memory of alumni and faculty.
Great Britain supplying ten, Germany and Nationalist China nine each, Japan four, India and Poland three each.
Nearly 2,000 alumni and friends are expected to help solicit for the Greater University Fund before the end of the fiscal year.
