1997-98 Parents Fund
	Giving by parents of Ithaca College students and alumni continues its upward progress in the 1997-98 fund year. As of February 16, 1,128 parents had made a total of $106,450 in contributions to the Parents Fund, a 10 percent increase over last year. With those gifts and another $46,340 in outstanding pledges, the Parents Fund is on track to meet its 1997-98 goal of $200,000. Ithaca College is honored and deeply grateful to have the ongoing support of so many parents. Many thanks to all who have pledged and given so far this year. We extend special thanks to the members of the Parents Fund Committee, a dedicated group of parents who volunteer their time to speak with other parents about supporting Ithaca and who serve as an important link between parents and the College. Any parents of current students or alumni who would like to get involved with the Parents Fund Committee are welcome to contact Jennifer Lockley, coordinator of the Parents Fund, at (607) 274-1155, or via e-mail at jlockley@ithaca.edu.
