| The largest
gift ever pledged during the phonathon was received this fall
by the College of Nursing. A $10,000 pledge was made by Marian
Setter, '44 Nurs, of Great Falls. She designated the gift
for nursing general support. |
| "Gifts
of this magnitude from our friends and alumni are just wonderful,"
said College of Nursing Dean Elizabeth G. Nichols. "Such
a gift indicates a great deal of confidence in the quality and
competence of our faculty and students. I take the stewardship
of these donations very seriously. We want to be the best program
there is, and this will help us to achieve that goal. Thank
you, Marian, so very much." |
| Annual
Fund Director Jan Bosch said this was not a typical phonathon
gift. "Our student callers were excited and inspired by
such a generous gift," she said. "The student caller
who visited with Ms. Setter was thrilled, especially when she
found out it is the largest gift ever pledged during the phonathon.
It certainly helped us meet our phonathon goal for the College
of Nursing." |
| The average
phonathon pledge for fall 2004 was $73. |
