======-= :.11 .....H.__. ... -FF For some time now the class of 1969 has been looking for an effective means to further the progress of Cabrini College. When Mr. Federico joined our administration, members of the senior class asked him for his ideas. Mr. Federico stressed the importance of a development program. No college or university can exist exclusively on funds acquired through students' tuition. Schools which are lar-

ger or older than Cabrini have solved this problem through endowments from private as well as public benefactors. When outside organizations consider contributing to a school, the support of the alumnae and the parents of the students is investigated as a means to gauge an appropriate sum for donation. Mr. Federico emphasized the value of financial support begun from within the student community. The public relations value is as attractive as are the financial advantages to the school. A pledge drive initiated by the students demonstrates a method by which an individual may take an active part in positive improvements for her scpool. The idea of a pledge drive, handled through personal solicitation has been adopted. After canvassing the members of the senior class, $1000 was decided to be a realistic goal. The students themselves will decide how their gift will be used. The solicitation will take place over a period of two weeks and will begin on April 16 at a "Kick-off'' dinner. At this time the purpose of the drive will be explained in greater detail. A student will be requested to pledge any amount she wishes, to be paid in the course of the next three years. It may be paid in full at the first contact or at any intervals specified by the individual donor. No member of the fund drive committee will engage in requesting pledges from other

Sociology Convocation ToFeature Woodward "Who Are You-Black Man?" will be the title of a lecture by Woody Woodland, scheduled for Mon., April 21 at 12:00 Noon, in the Cabrini College auditorium. The public is invited to attend without charge. This lecture, sponsored by the Social Science department, will be the last academic convocation of the scholastic year. Mr. Woodland will spend the afternoon on campus talking informally with students. He is currently working with the Cardinal's Commission on Human Relations and is lecturing in the Philadelphia area. Formerly a substitute in the Delaware County School System, Mr. Woodland also worked for the General Electric Co. as as Administrator of Engineering Design. He has also served as Executive Director of the Carver Community Center in Norristown. Mr. Woodland attended public schools in Chester (Pa.) and Cheyney State College.

Every gift to Cabrini College is acknowledged by a letter, suitable for verification of the gift for tax purposes. The committee respon sible for this drive is comprised of the following members of the Margrit senior cl Hss: President Boyle, Co-chairmen Kathie Lindhardt and Joyce Schultz, Resident Chairman Vera Stella, Day Student Chairman Alicia Syres, Resident Representatives Kathy McNerney, Mary Kai Stanbach, Claire McEntyre, and Judy Sherknis, Day Student Representatives Lorraine DeBrodi, Chris Brown, and Marlynne Micalizzi, and Publicity Staff members Mary Ellen Kelly and Carolyn Downing. The pledge drive committee is hoping for 100 percent participation. This is the first drive of this nature to be initiated at Cabrini, and it could well become the most important factor in a fruitful development program. It is hoped that this drive will be adopted as a tradition by outgoing classes and that at the end of the three-year pledge period, those who were participants will renew their pledges and continue to do so according to their capabilities. Such a tradition, Mr. Federico feels, will strengthen the asstructure of the alumnae sociation and provide a great source of satisfaction to both students and alumnae, by making them proud of Cabrini and the part they have played in the betterment of the college.
