Winter 2006 Centralight 11 in support Campaign talk At the end of CMU’s landmark New Vision of Excellence Campaign, we asked Michael Leto, vice president of development and alumni relations, to look back on the campaign and share his perspective on its key successes and changing goals over the past five years.

In what areas did CMU exceed the main goals of the capital campaign and in what areas are there still unmet needs? There were three main goal areas for the campaign: endowment, capital projects, and ongoing and special programs. The goals were exceeded in each area by significant margins. However, there are continuing needs in the areas of student support and especially for faculty endowments. The new education building was also approved late in the campaign and this will be a continuing fundraising priority moving forward.

To what do you attribute the success of the campaign? People sense that a lot of exciting things are happening at the university, and they want to

help make a difference. The success of the BARCLAY R O BERT campaign can be attributed to many things.

CMU is an AA/EO institution (see www.cmich.edu/aaeo). 20100 8/06 Student Loan Rates Plummet! Consolidate today and lock in an incredibly low rate!

To help borrowers take advantage of the falling interest rates on student loans, the Central Michigan University

Alumni Association has teamed with Nelnet to offer student loan consolidation. Qualifying borrowers who choose to consolidate can lock in a very low rate for the entire life of the loan and dramatically reduce their monthly payment.

In addition to the guaranteed low rate, the program offers incentives that reduce the rate even further. Borrowers can earn an additional .25% interest rate reduction for auto-

electronic payments and another 1.0% after 48 initial, on-time, regular payments. This could bring many borrowers’ interest rates below 2.875%.*

Nelnet, a national leader in education finance, brings you over two decades of experience funding education. For more information on

how you can consolidate your student loans, call 1.866.4CONSOL (426.6765) or visit our Web site at

www.alumniconsolidation.nelnet.net to learn more.
