I do not give a dime to my alma mater, for various reasons I won't bore everyone with again. The best was one year when I got a call during what they consider as "rivalry Week" to raise more money than the opposing school, and yes, I'd already donated as a supporter to the other school's fundraising efforts. However, I have many donations through the years to my initiating chapter of AOII as well as to the AOII Foundation in a variety of capacities.
The thing that really gets me is when I get the donation pleas from the schools where our two oldest are attending. We're already paying for them to attend your schools and you want MORE MONEY??? Seriously?
