1906
As every alumnus knows, Dartmouth College would be in a bad way financially if it were not for the Alumni Fund.
The outstanding feature for the year that ended June 30 is the fact that, in addition to the $611,000 raised, over 82% of the alumni participated.
The class of 1906 can take pride in the fact that over 90% of its living members made a personal contribution to the Fund. Max did a grand job but failed to reach the 100% mark simply because a few fellows neglected to send in a check.
This year the class of 1906 is again shooting for the 100% mark so those of you who did not participate last year please start saving your pennies so you won't disappoint your classmates this coming year.
