[QUOTE="GTLorenzo, post: 474856, member: 359"] These are all factually incorrect. I was on my 25th reunion committee last year. The "big check" they present to Bud includes donations made to Roll Call, AT Fund, various colleges and programs from approximately 18 months prior to Homecoming to around 6 months after and can include multi year pledges and a portion of estate planning pledges. [B]This also specifically includes donations to the AT Fund. [/B]So, this is not just a one time donation of $17 million. It is a multi-year amount that includes multi year pledges and other long term pledges, such as estate planning. That makes the check look bigger and better, but the event is also used to increase support and both one time and long term donations and pledges. Since I was on the committee, I used the AT Fund as a way to get classmates to donate to help the athletic programs, if I knew they were interested in them. Definitely agree that we could do a better job with fundraising in general and athletics specifically. [/QUOTE]
