Contributed by Lynne Pierce

If you vote by 5:00 p.m. on October 2, 2007 you’ll be entered in a drawing to win $100 gift card for groceries or gas!

If you didn’t make it to the table in the campus center lobby this week then you can vote by email at ithacafund@ithaca.edu

As members of the Class of 2008, we are confident in the voting decision you will make. Keep in mind that if the project you want is not the one chosen by the majority vote, you can still participate and give to the Class of 2008 campaign – to your school, athletic team, student organization, etc. We are excited to move forward with the voting process and make an announcement of the final decision on October 5th at the Senior Class Homecoming Happy Hour in IC Square (5:00 – 6:30 p.m.)

Please do not let your voice go unheard, be a part of the Class of 2008’s legacy and vote for the project of your choice.

Pick one of the following that you would be willing to support through the 2007 Senior Class Gift Campaign:

1) Class of 2008 Scholarship for Experiential Learning - Create an endowed fund (minimum of $25,000) to provide financial assistance to students doing unpaid internships. The funding could go for transportation, housing or other areas to defray the out-of- pocket cost of getting the experience.

2) Class of 2008 Community Service Endowment - Create an endowed fund (minimum of $25,000) to provide financial assistance to students participating in Alternative Spring Break, in which students spend the week doing community service in different areas around the country.

3) Class of 2008 “Green Grants” Endowment - Create an endowed fund (minimum of $25,000) to provide financial assistance to students doing campus sustainability project-based programs. Individuals, clubs, student organizations, departments, student class project teams would envision a “sustainability project”, develop a funding proposal to be undertaken within a given year. Proposals would be submitted for evaluation to a review committee comprised of faculty, staff, students, and administrators.

We must have the following information to count your vote AND to enter your name in the prize drawing:
