The Stingiest Ivy

An email to members of the current senior class included this statistic:

Last year, 1,777 seniors (nearly 55% of the class) set a new record for the decade's most participants.
However, Cornell had by far the LOWEST participation in the Ivy League in 2009:
Dartmouth: 96%
Princeton: 91%
Columbia: 90.5%
Yale: 89%
Brown: 74.8%
Harvard: 74%
UPenn: 71%
Cornell: 54.7%

Note that this is the percentage of students who donated any amount whatsoever to the campaign. Pretty pathetic. I haven't donated yet myself, but plan to in the weeks ahead.

Can't the SA tack on an extra $.25 to the student activity fee and designate this quarter for "Class Fund" or something? Then 100 percent of enrolled students will donate each year.
