GIFTS, GRANTS & BEQUESTS
During this period when Dartmouth is receiving major support through giving to the Third Century Fund and the continuing Alumni Fund, it is important not to lose sight of other ongoing ways in which alumni and friends, corporations and foundations help to meet the challenge of constantly growing demands and increasing costs of operation facing the College these days. The purpose of this column is to make appreciative record of gifts, grants and bequests of $5,000 or more - other than contributions to the Alumni Fund and outright gifts to the Third Century Fund. The College receives many gifts of less than $5,000 and these are needed and warmly welcomed. In the three months, February-April 1969, the total of these more modest gifts, exclusive of those to the Alumni Fund and Third Century Fund, was $131,800.
