Excerpt: ... private houses, its palace, shrine, and many interesting relics of primeval civilization. In the estimation of an English archaeologist, it was the most perfect example yet discovered of a small Mycenaean town, and was creditable not only to Miss Boyd, but to the intellectual culture which she had received at the College. Two years later, Miss Boyd was again granted leave of absence to continue her excavations in Crete, with the assistance of Miss Edith H. Hall, of the Class of 1899. In a land where civic restraints were comparatively weak, these two women, with no protection by resident police or soldiers, through the simple force of their scholarship and their personal character, were able to direct from eighty to one hundred men without molestation or insubordination, and to bring to light many valuable illustrations of ancient life and art. Duplicates of some of the prehistoric pottery which Miss Boyd discovered at Gournia were given to the College, and an illustrated volume containing an account of her work was published by the Trustees. This year, the Smith College Association for Christian Work printed for the first time an annual report of its operations, showing that $2053.23 had been raised by the students for charitable purposes. Out of this sum aid had been given to College Settlements Associations; to the Needlework Guild; to the Carlisle Indian School; to the relief work in China; to the American College for Women in Madrid; to New York City Missions; to the support of a medical missionary in India, of a nurse in Shanghai, and of Bible women in Madras and Ceylon. The association had provided also teachers for the home-culture clubs and mission schools in the city, given remunerative work for needy students, and had directed...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The newest title in the Princeton Architectural Press Campus Guide series takes readers on a tour of Smith College. Founded in 1871 as one of the first full-fledged colleges for women, Smith is known for its beautiful campus set in an idyllic New England landscape. A walk around its grounds is like a comprehensive tour through American architecture from the eighteenth century to the present. The campus includes such diverse buildings as Peabody & Stearn's Queen Anne-style College Hall; the neo-Georgian Quadrangle by Ames, Dodge and Putnam; Skidmore, Owings & Merrill's International Style Cutter and Ziskind houses; as well as the postmodern Bass Science Center and Young Science Library by Shepley, Bullfinch, Richardson, and Abbott. The university's most recent additions include the Brown Fine Arts Center, designed by the Polshek Partnership; the Olin Fitness Center, by Leers Weinzapfel Associates; and the Campus Center by Weiss/Manfredi.

Download or read book Fund Raising in the United States written by and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 1965 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fund raising in the United States is big business. Some 350,000 nonprofit organizations employ an army of fund raisers, all competing for their share, employing the latest technology in computerized direct mail and telemarketing. The American public is swamped with appeals on behalf of this cause or that, as ever more ambitious financial goals are set. Equally intense are demands on active citizens to staff fund-raising drives; a 1987 survey found that 48 percent of Americans engage in some sort of volunteer work. Popular philanthropy, financed by organized, high-pressure fund raising, is uniquely American. This classic history of fund raising in the United States, first published in 1965, has been out of print for the last twenty-two years despite continuing demand. It covers the role of fund raising from the seventeenth century to the present, with emphasis on mass secular fund raising in the twentieth century (religious fund raising is excluded). It documents techniques and problems that are central to the profession today, as well as events and persons on the cutting edge. As both Cutlip and Schwartz indicate in this new edition, since 1964 the climate for philanthropy has been conditioned by two factors-public policies and public perception. Reduction in federal grants to charities and changes in tax policies have increased the gap between needs and resources. Public perception is also a problem, as the result of rampant scandals. Competition for the philanthropic dollar is keener than ever; but the picture is not all gloomy. Schwartz outlines nine positive trends. Among them is increasing interest in philanthropic studies in many areas of academia, including history, sociology, economics, public policy, behavioral sciences, social work, and American studies. There is also increasing interest overseas, as American approaches to fund raising become an example for other nations.
