Offline Anyone do any giving to the University today? I gave specifically to men's basketball. I had written a note to the AD and another person in athletics last year that I couldn't give to men's hoops again until the university made a commitment. They kept up there end of that and seem to have committed to trying to make this program better so I kept up my pledge as well. From someone who spent 4 years with the team while in school I'm pumped about where the program is headed even given the performance of the past 5 games. Great post. I contributed. Great cause no matter who you dedicate your $$ to. Athletic Department has raised close to $25k today.

This will be in addition to what I had planned to give this year. Offline The football match is now off the board since $10,000 was raised. Offline Ice hockey met their challenge too. So all 3 athletics challenges were met. A total of $58,688.18 was raised for Athletics; and the overall total raised for the University was $292,858. Offline Where can we donate?

Re: Duquesne Day of Giving
You can take Swimming and Diving off of the matching list since they raised the $10,000 for the maximum match.
Football is about $1,000 short of their matching maximum; you guys can put them over the top.

PS, WBB earned a 20% increase from me for hitting 20 wins.
Re: Duquesne Day of Giving
Ice Hockey is looking for 17 donors of any amount to get a $500 challenge donation.
Athletics has raised nearly $50K so far today.
Re: Duquesne Day of Giving
The law school also met their challenge, so former Dukes star Garry Nelson had to ante up $2,500 to fulfill his challenge.
