The 2011 Class Gift

Purpose

Historically, each senior has given a one-time class gift equal to his or her year of graduation ($20.08, for example).  Members of the Class of 2011 will instead be asked to give $5 during each of their first three years and $5.11 in their senior year, totaling a gift of $20.11.  Why?  Obviously, the purpose is not to increase the amount of money raised by the class--the purpose is to create a culture of philanthropy within the student body.  As philanthropy becomes habitual, students will be better prepared for their role as alumni, supporting future generations of Titans and strengthening their alma mater each and every year.

Rationale

Now, you're probably asking "Why should I give back?"  There are many reasons.  Here are a few:

	IWU tuition covers about two-thirds of the cost of an IWU education.  It's true.  Wanna know more?
	We can positively affect the value of our own IWU degrees.  Let's give ourselves even better jobs down the road.
	We're losing to Augie!  We can do better (frankly, it was painful to even put this logo on here).  Let's go Titans!
