Life insurance a new alumni option PSU alumni can now add life insurance to the list of benefits available to them, according to Robert Tayler, director of alumni relations. "This is new for Portland State," said Tayler, "but alumni insurance programs are a pretty traditional part of the package of services that many colleges and universities set up for their grads." Offered as a supplementary group policy, the term life insurance is available at very competitive costs. "It's life insurance at dirt cheap rates," said John Bledsoe ('72, MA '74), an insurance salesman who chaired the alumni committee thaI created the program. "It looks so impressive. I'm probably going to buy a $20-30,000 policy myself." Agent Ray Johnson of John Pea-' and Associates, the company administering the alumni policy, said that a healthy man under the age of 2S would probably pay a 6-month premium of $8 for a $10,000 policy, Term life insurance pays benefits only at death and has no cash value, he said. Underwritten by the North American Life and Casualty Company, which has expertise in association group insurance, the policy is "quite liberal, but it doesn't guarantee insurability," said Johnson. One interesting feature of the alumni insurance program is that a policyholder can name Portland State University as beneficiary, noted Tayler. Bledsoe emphaSized that the alumni insurance program is intended not to replace, but rather to supplement, a person's existing policies. "Statistics show that the average household will buy seven life insurance policies," he explained. "I don't think anybody can go wrong" adding the alumni policy to what they have, he said. Alumni will soon receive mailings from PSU's alumni office explaining the new insurance program. Included with a brochure will be an .application form ready to fill out and mail in. PSU faculty and staff will also be invited to join the group policy. Free seminar focuses on career planning What next? Many talented people ask this question at some point in their careers.
