Alumni donations have nearly doubled in the past two years because of fundraising for building projects and a large estate donated last year, but alumni participation is gradually decreasing, following a nationwide trend in giving, a university official said.
The university received donations from 11,088 donors in the 2005 fiscal year, but received 10,207 in the 2006 fiscal year, said Janine Kraus, director of annual giving.
