No I don't give.
Paying for pretty new buildings at my alma mater is Phil Knight's job. He's happy doing it and most of us are happy to let him. In return he gets to run the show (kind of) and we buy athletic apparel with swooshes all over it. It's a win-win. Well....other than being called whores on a regular basis, but I taught junior high, so I've been called worse. I've made my peace with it.

In truth, they call and I say no because I'm not in a financial position to do so and my charitable giving is engaged elsewhere. Besides, as much as I loved my university, my parents paid for me and I paid for my daughter so I feel as if we've done our bit for God and country.
When I win the Publisher's Clearinghouse Sweepstakes, I will reconsider my position. Maybe sooner because I just read AxiDTrish's post and now I feel incredible guilt.
