Ok, since I am farely certain that I am not the only geek here, I decided to look at some numbers.
The Varsity, Century, State's 250 and Cardinal members total 5,041 and total donations are $5,046,750.
The Gold, Gold Plus, Captain's Victory and Director's clubs total 1,612 members and $3,919,500.
The Captain's club alone is $1,130,000.
I think it is interesting to note that the 5,041 members in the top group give less than the 452 members in the Captain's club. Now, I am in the Cardinal club, and am giving as much as I can talk my wife into.
I know that times are difficult, and alot of us don't have the money to give at those higher levels. I just think it is interesting to see the power of the donation dollars and to look at it from a money perspective.
I will state, that my wife made a good point, when calling me a geek. Pollard should be looking at the Varsity level donors and asking himself why there are only 748 members who take advantage of halk price football tickets when we graduate thousands of students a year. These students are eligible for this discount on average for the next 7-8 years.
