Give, Give, Give

For U.S. college alumni, the dear old days were never so dear. Under way is the biggest fund-raising drive in history. Last week alone, three universities asked for $332,500,000, over periods ranging from three to ten years, as follows:

Northwestern $157,500,000 Stanford 100,000,000 New York 75,000,000

Among scores of similar mammoth campaigns :

Yale $147,000,000 Tulane 96,000,000 Johns Hopkins 76,400,000 Columbia 74,000,000 M.I.T 66,000,000 Notre Dame . 66,000,000 Princeton 53,000,000

In part, the push is a me-too reaction to Harvard's recent and successful $82.5 million drive for Harvard College, the most ever raised at one time for undergraduate education. (Harvard is raising another $58 million for medical education.) But with U.S. college enrollment due to double by 1970, the big goal is simply to handle the hordes. From every campus in the land, the cry is give, give, give.
