What is not difficult is to see that the need for private gifts will only continue to escalate, particularly at public universities that have seen state investment in high education deteriorate.Fundraising topics covered in this volume include:OL {list-style:disc}P:{margin-left 60px} The growing role of private giving in financing the modern university The Foundation-Institution Partnership: The Role of Institutionally Related Foundations in Public Higher Education The Challenge of Funding Fundraising Leading the Way: The Role of Presidents and Academic Deans in Fundraising Determining the Success of Fundraising Programs Integrating Development, Alumni Relations, and Marketing for Fundraising Success Balancing Fundraising in Academic Programs and Intercollegiate Athletics Prospect Development Systems: Empowering Artful Fundraising Recruiting, Training, and Retaining High-Performance Development TeamsThis is the 149th issue of the Jossey-Bass higher education quarterly report series New Directions for Higher Education.
