Title: Phonathon Tonight and Tomorrow
Post by: Beeeej on January 12, 2010, 02:36:25 PM
Tonight and tomorrow, members of the men's hockey team will be calling alumni of, and previous donors to, the hockey program to ask for new gifts for fiscal 2010.  If you fall into one of the above categories, and you get a phone call from a number you don't recognize tonight or tomorrow night, please don't just disregard it.  :-)

(Of course if you're not in those categories and wish to make a gift anyway, you can do so at http://www.alumni.cornell.edu/giving.cfm or by calling 800-279-3099.)

(And no, this hasn't been my "job" for over nine years, but I think it's important that we help the team stay solvent and able to compete with funds for recruiting and equipment.)

It's never too late.

I don't think this is allowed until Cornell starts offering athletic scholarships and joins the Big 10 11...14.

Oh don't worry. The hot girls at Dunbar's (NOT a contradiction, thank you), afterhours at Chi Psi, Sigma Nu, etc. are strongly encouraged to "be nice to the recruits so they want to come here."

I have seen the young lasses waiting at the bottom of A after games.

I do not shed tears for our players.

Maybe they could arrange something similar to boost women's recruiting?  It could even be the same girls -- I keeeed, I keeeed.
