Class Gift

Class of 1956 Scholarship

Sara Feldman :The technical equipment needed as a part of a CMU education, as well as the general amount needed to run a first rate educational institution is very costly. Let's consider having our class gift be a scholarship "The Class of 1956 Scholarship". How does that sound?

Dusty Wasserman: Concerning your note about a class of '56 scholarship fund. Do you have any funding target in mind? These days, everything in college costs so much that it seems like it would have to be a significant amount to mean anything.

Sara Feldman: First facts. I have asked the Alumni Office for another copy of the amount of money needed for a scholarship, and the amount of possible givers we have. I will send it on when I get it. ( My memory -not confirmed fact - is that we had approximately 600 potential givers, and the minimum for a scholarship was $ 60.000.)

Judy Obermayer: We are looking for input from other class members. Do you think this is a good idea? Do you have another suggestion for a class gift?
