Taylor said the AALAC's accreditation is looked closely upon by the National Institutes of Health which policies and on Sept. 24, asked the state Department of Health to investigate the shelter for destroying animals Problems that have plagued the JJniversity of Utah animal research program are finally being solved. The Salt Lake County Animal Services, which prevented the U. from obtaining animals for five years, is again providing dogs and cats for research. "The county has been cooperative with us. Their attitude toward us has made a complete turn around," Jack Taylor, director of the U. Animal Resource Center, said.

The U. has agreed to add an additional $2.2 million to build a new rodent housing facility, which will be attached to the Animal Resource Center.

The campaign, officially titled, The Campaign for Utah: Touching a Nation, is spearheaded by hundreds of prominent Utahns who have contributed financially to the university. The supporters are divided into committees based on the amount of their individual contributions. Each committee is responsible for finding and screening prospective donors for contributions similar to their own, Smith said. Judging from the $ 104 million the committees have raised thus far, asking for money is not as difficult as it may seem.
