Show CkaoNidE ThtiRsdAy, JANtAsy Pqt Two By Dennis Romboy Chronicle investigative editor of practice the library rarely names specific sections within Officially it's known as the Marriott Library in honor of J. Willard Marriott who donated $ 1 million to strengthen library collections. The lack of a way to show appreciation to library donors has caused kinks in the search for contributors, considering that no other contributor will be able to put his or her name on the building. Although all potential donors do not seek, this type of recognition, it is just one of many reasons why the libraries section of the U. capital fund-raisicampaign is far short of its $13 million goal. ng "I think we're fighting the lack of an emotional tie," Michael Mattsson, U. vice president for development, said. Emotion, pride, need and tax advantages are among numerous motivations for giving, he said. To date, the campaign, which began in 1985, has raised $2.27 million, a mere 17 percent of the amount hoped to be collected by July, 1990. Since the library was constructed in 1968, there has not been a major contribution that comes close to what Marriott gave. The Marriott Library will always be known as the Marriott Library even if a contribution larger than Marriott's is received. "Once a building is named, it's named," Roger Hanson, U. libraries director, said. There is no going back on a name. Futhermore, as matter its walls. "We have a philosophy that we don't name areas within the library," Sue Raymer, coordinator for library development, said. Due to constant shifting and moving of library collections and areas, she said, it's difficult to name wings and sections. "A library has to be more flexible. It can't be tied with restraints by donors," Raymer said. When large contributions come in, they are often earmarked by the donor for a specific purpose, Hanson said. While these contributions are certainly helpful and never turned down, he said, they cover costs for a single area only. And giving continuing recognition to a donor in that situation is not always possible. In athletics and medicine, areas which receive the most private funds, appreciation is not as difficult to demonstrate. Hospitals can name wings and floors after donors. Sports teams can offer box seats to games. "Books don't bounce, you know," Hanson said. Asked if sports fans who contribute to the library could receive box seats Hanson said, "That's not for me to decide. I guess "it's possible. In my opinion it's possible." Possible or not, receiving continued name recognition or something else in return for a donation, is not the only motivation for contributing to a university need. "I think we're fighting the lack of an emotional tie," Michael Mattsson, U. vice president for development, said. Emotion, pride, need and tax advantages are among numerous motivations for giving, he said. "Certainly a personal relationship is as high as anything else." "No one graduates from the library," Hanson said. "I only know one person who said he graduated from the library and he got kicked out of school for not going to class." , MISS UTAH USA rani 033QB GSKS7 SGS) APRIL 9, 1988 Judges Interviews Evening Gown Swim suit MISS UTAH USA 1988 SUZIE LUNDELL Photo by Scott Peterson FOR FREE ENTRY INFORMATION visit nil Pinter j wwntvi And See -- SEND nv For Yourself Why We Make 7 Its. - 90 E STAMPED ED Your name, age, birthdate, and phone to: Regional Headquarters PO Box 8668, Mesa AZ 85204 (602) 827-040- 8 - CENTER PREPARATION SPECIALISTS SINCE 1938 Call Days Evenings SELF-ADDRESS- ENVELOPE (letter size) - EDUCATIONAL TESt A Weekends & Please support the SHDd AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY RUSH tre ition-gor call ' 581-806- Sororities Kappa Alpha Theta Delta, Delta, Delta 1 children ages Full-tim- and e 2-- 5 welcome; part-tim- e.

The proposal, which passed by consensus, was sponsored by Rob Sorenson, an Assembly member from the College of , Engineering. The University of Utah is vital to Utah's economy, the resolution said. And reducing its budget would result in a loss of important faculty members. Sorenson suggested increasing the governor's office spending proposal. "This could likely help alleviate Utah's economic woes in the future rather than worsen them," the resolution said, The committee also approved a resolution opposing Wm. Rolf Kerr's suggestion that all Utah colleges and universities change to a semester system. The resolution stated although a semester system may be valuable in the future, it's not economically viable at this time. It suggested school administrators research the issue before making a final decision. At the same meeting, the committee allocated more than $11,000 to 10 student organizations. The largest allocation went to the Inter-trib- al Student Association to help sponsor Indian Awareness Week. The group received funds to hold;apow wow, a high school recruitment program and th&'Miss Indian U. Pageant. Funds were also allocated to the Utah Symphony Orchestra, two honor societies, the College of Nursing, Black Student Union, Student Senate and the College of Engineering. Money was also approved for a film seminar, a metallurgical conference and computing machinery. All allocations must be approved by the Assembly. w, pace. Use free time to your advantage.

Hanson said other departments have a fund-raisiadvantage over the library because they have access to alumni who may want to contribute. Mattsson agrees, saying students are generally not inspired at the library like they are in other areas of the campus. Students don't have the personal contact an academic department can provide. Students generally spend part of their college experience in the library, but as alumni, they don't readily identify with the library. That identification, if there was some, could spawn potential contributors to the U. libraries.
