It is my pleasure to report on the 1959-60 Annual DONATIONS BY CLASS Alumni Fund. The fund this year yielded the great­ 1930 - 1939 $4,928.00 est financial support by alumni in the history of 1821 - 1909 1,713.00 Pennsylvania Military College. Yet as fine as the 1920 - 1929 1,606.00 record is, it falls short of the potential PMC 1940 - 1948 970.00 1949 892.57 alumni support and when compared with alumni 1954 640.00 support of similar institutions it is evident we can 1950 461.00 improve. With the increasing realization by PMC 1957 316.40 alumni· of our responsibility to support our Alma 1910 - 1919 275.00 Mater with proportionate gifts on an annual volun­ 1951 180.00 1958 141.00 tary basis we can look forward to greater partici­ 1952 141.00 pation by our members in the coming years. 1953 120.00 We are all aware that alumni support alone is 1959 115.33 insufficient. But, we are also aware that alumni 1956 112.90 1960 - 1962 102.50 support is the barometer of support from business, 19155 94.17 industry, friends, and foundations. All of these Alumni Association 535.00 other donors first ask, "What are your alumni doing?" This year we alumni gave $13,344.07. Last Total from Alumni $13,344.07 year the total was $8,889.00. This is an increase Trustees 1,020.00 of $4,455.07 or 50%. Friends 60.00 Business and Industry 1,430.00 This year we had some donations to the Fund from other than alumni. For example, prior to the Total $15,854.07 kick-off, several members of the Board of Trus­ tees (other than alumni) donated more than $1000 DONATIONS BY PURPOSE as a challenge. Evidently their challenge was ac­ Unrestricted $4,951.00 cepted. Some gifts were also received from friends. Faculty Salaries $3,855.00 More than $1400.00 was received from business Capital Projects 4,777.50 Scholarship~ and Student Aid 1,105.00 and industry through matching gifts. The Alumni Veteran Programs 500.00 Association helped swell the total with a gift from Athletic Programs 165.57 its operating budget.
