April 2006

As AU's fiscal year draws to a close on April 30, we're even closer to our AnewAU campaign goal of $200 million. We want to thank all alumni for supporting AU and keeping our alumni giving participation rate strong at 18 percent in 2006. This figure isn't only financial, it's one of the many ways that our institution is ranked nationally. Thank you again for all of your support.

Cheers,
Carey Earle, SOC/BA '88
