Students are Giving Back to the University
Student Giving Committee promotes “Aggies for Change” campaign
LOGAN, Utah. – “Tuition paid by students only accounts for 16 percent of the costs needed to keep the university running,” Tessa Goodall, Student Giving Chair, said. “The rest is paid for by donors.”Student Giving Committee promotes “Aggies for Change” campaign
The Student Giving Committee is working to promote the idea that it is easy for students to give back to the university by donating their spare change. These coin collections will happen once a semester, the first one being Oct. 21-22.
As part of Tuition Freedom Day, price tags were displayed around campus to show the true costs of operating different buildings and suckers were passed out with information on them.
“Our purpose is to create awareness. When students realize how little they already give to the university, they will become more willing to donate a little more,” Goodall said. “We want students to feel invested in their education.”
The Student Giving Committee has meetings every Thursday at 9 p.m. in Old Main 114. Anybody is welcome to help out. More projects will follow throughout the semester and in the spring students will get to vote on what happens with their donations.

This looks superb! Is it necessary to put "contact" and "phone", or "email"-maybe thats a "my style" kinda thing.
ReplyDeleteThis might be just one of my styles, but I think the first quote needs a little more set up. I like it. Maybe use it as an indirect quote?
