Officials Take Note
Of Other Gift Plans
The promise of more than $500,000 as a class gift has
University officials and the senior class gift committee inves
tigating a new procedure in class contributions.
The center of attraction
gift program now being used
vania and Brown University. The
plan was inaugurated last year in
both schools and they are the
only two institutions in the coun
try which use it.
Under this new program, all
yearly alumni contributions are
handed over to an investment
fund where "they are invested in
American industry." The funds
and any dividends that they,
ht bring are invested and re-'
invested for 25 years. At the 25th
class reunion, the class cashes in
its investment and gives its alma'
mater the profits.
At Brown, for instance, au
thorities predict that if all mem
bers of the class contribute $lO
steadily for 25 years, approxi
mately $125,000 in contributions
will have been invested.
In the 25-year period, $200,-
000 in dividends should accrue
from the original investment.
With the reinvestment of the divi
dends as they are received, the
total holdings should exceed
$600,000 at the end of the period.
Tim Nelligan, chairman of the
senior class Gift Committee, said
that although it is too late for the
senior class to consider the plan
for this year, the three class ad
visory boards are reviewing it for
future use.
"Response to the plan seems
to be favorable," Nelligan said.
It will bp up to next year's sen
ior class advisory board to
make the decision, he pointed
out, but the people involved
should start Thinking about it
now.
The question of taking a risk
often comes up, Nelligan said,
but the risk involved is propor
tionate to our national economy.
According to a report made by
the investment bankers who are
handling'• the Brown money:
"Even if the market should drop
sharply and fail to adyance above
today's level for 25 years, the ad
vantages of dollar-cost averaging
would allow us to give Brown a
larger gift than any other invest
ment medium permits."

Sari Is Designed to 'Pletthei
By DOTI DRASHFR
Indian women have retained
the traditional sari dress in
their culture despite Western
influences because the men
like it.
An Indian student at the recent
International Fireside of the Uni
versity Christian Association ex
plained the sari as a long cloth
wrapped around the body with
one end over the head.
The discussion, "Clothing as an
Expression of Culture," was led
by Miss Ruth Gates, associate
professor of clothing and tex
tiles. Students from Yugoslavia,
Pakistan, India and Germany
were represented at the meeting.
Indian men appreciate the
gracefulness of the sari. The
women are not involved in af
fairs outside the home and so
have kept the traditional dress,
the student continued.

style of dress (including bermu
das) is worn. Nehru, the prime
minister of India, "standardized"
the dress by recommending that
