Campaign volunteers near goal of Alumni Fund 4 The fourth annual Alumni Fund. launched last October, is moving toward its campaign goal of $90,000, with $75,000 donated or pledged so far. This already exceeds last year's total for alumni contributions. said fund director Karen Martini. Alumni have responded especially well to the direct mail campaign, known for its pointed message, "Dear Grad: Send Money." There has been one general mailing to date, with another scheduled to go out in February. One of the goals of Alumni Fund 4, under the chairmanship of Barbara Coit ('73), is to have 1()() donors at $100 apiece. "This would be a major accomplishment for a program in its fourth year." said Coit. Campaigners are about halfway to that goal and are encouraging prospective donors to think seriously about that level of commitment to the University. Gifts of $100 and more entitle donors to membership in these giving clubs: President's Associates, $1,000 and up: Dean's List, $500 to $999; University Partners, $250 to $499: and Park Blocks Associates, $100 to $249. "Gifts at any level are appreciated and get us toward our goals," explained Martini. "A financial contribution is the most important one an alum can make to Portland State right now." Money donated to the Alumni Fund is allocated to programs which directly enhance the students' educational experience. The Alumni Fund is currently providing scholarships, stata.of.the·art equipment, and new resources for the library. Alumni Fund 4 ends June 30. Direct donations can be made, or alumni can elect to make pledges to be paid by that date. Write or call PSU Alumni Fund, P.O. Box 243. Portland, OR 97207, (503) 229-4911.

Teacher, students join to install sculpture A kind of reunion look place when retired PSU professor Frederick Heidel's glass sculpture "Uoyd Trefoil" was installed allhe new lloyd Building in Northeast Portland. The 5OO-pound piece, constructed at a special studio in Holland, was . commissioned by lloyd Corporation as part of architect Denis Norstrom's ('69) interior design for the high·rise building. Bob Nilsen (,67). also an architect, supervised the installation of the laminated glass and nickle·plated steel sculpture which rests on a travertine base designed joinUy by Norstrom and Heidel. Both Norstrom and Nilsen took painting and drawing classes with Heidel during the sixties. Heidel, who started teaching at PSU when it was Vanport, retired in 1981. Alumni grants awarded Nine PSU students have been able to continue their studies with grants of up to $500 from the Alumni Fund. The awards, administered through the Office of Student Affairs, are helping these academically talented juniors and seniors meet their winter term tuition costs and related educational expenses. The students were nominated by their departments for the one-time awards based on academic achievement and immediate financial need. The new PSU Alumni Grants were made possible by donations from PSU alumni to the annual fund. STl In ....
