What do students and institutional adflcement have in common? How do they eract? Well. it may be through the phone:-Clon or, perhaps, the plans for a new sports .::-mplex. .

tions are considered gifts to the college and can be used anywhere seen fit. The money is raised through a number of different ways. This is done through mailing letters, direct mail, face-to-face and phone-a-thons. According to Stabley, the phono-a-thons seem to be the most e~ective. They are done every fall and spnng . When talking face-to-face with a sponsor, the office speaks to friends, trustees, alumni and family. Larger gifts come from corporations and other businesses. . After institutional advancement receives contributions, money then goes to offices such as financial aid and the business office. According to Elizabeth Cairns, director of financial aid, her office has little to do with institutional advancement. However, financial aid informs institutional advancement of its scholarship and aid needs. She said money is filtered through the business office and then given to financial aid for needy students.

Martha Dale, alumni affairs/annual funds di.rector, said, ·'Students who pay full tuition receive a 40 percent scholarship from the school. Thirty percent comes from annual funds." Lisa Bogia, public relations, said her office is a branch of institutional advancement whose main goal is to enhance the image of the school. t Bogia said that the department's biggeS goal this year is to meet the Dixon Chailenge. In 1992,the Dixons announced they would give $500,000 to Cabrini College. Eu~ene Dixon and his wife, Edith, former chair of the board, said they will double their gif~ if the college can meet their challenge with another $1 million by June 1994.
