This is a private poll so please be honest. I honestly think it would be interesting to see how much in donations to the AD there are among members of the board. Once again your name won't be listed so don't be shy but please be honest.

are we talking CF credits here? :jimlad:

I would love to give more than I do to the university, but until I get rid of the student loan burden, It really isn't possible at this point. the best I can do to help out our Athletic department is buying season tickets for MBB and football, which is what i'll continue to do until I am able to give more.

I have had FB season tickets since 2004, been to every game/tailgate since then. But next year will be the first year I donate and it will be the $250 states. I sure hope promotions are in my work future and I would love to give more as well, especially if I see even more that I like out of my money, I really like CPR and his coaches, I'd love to see them stay for QUITE awhile. What this program and all athletics need are stability and consistentcy at Iowa State.

We are at Gold level, thanks to my employer's match (80%).

I now it is very hard to find extra money in our financial environment today, but I encourage everyone to at least become a Century donor. I am very happy to contribute some of my earnings to Cyclone athletics and I am proud of the accomplishments of all the athletic teams.

I decided after the Nebraska game that I was going to double mine starting in 2010. It makes it a lot easier now that they let you pay it in smaller payments instead of one lump sum like before.

I too will be doubling, but an likely to do so by donating stock instead of just cutting a check.

I'm at 250. I'd like to do 500 next year so I can try and get some better basketball seats. We went from 3 seats to 5 seats this year and we are definitely in the nosebleeds.

I pledged to give an incremental $1,000 for every time I get laid in Ames. I visit ~6x a year. So far, I have made no contributions besides my annual $200.

We give $1000. When I say we, I mean my employer matches 80%, and the rest my wife and I split with my parents. Our NCC membership is under my name and I just turned 29 a couple weeks ago, so we're still getting the $195 season tickets. Since we have three little kids and my parents live in Ames, it's convenient for them to go to half the games, and for our share of the games we get free daycare.
