That's like a situation that occured at my school last year. The brother of a girl who is a member of Pi Beta Phi on my campus died a few years ago, so every year she has a basketball tournament to raise money for a foundation set up in his name. when she got going on it this last time, she was going to have Clarence Black, an alum of my college and a Survivor contestent, come to the tournament along with the other Survivor contestents. Note--this would have been great publicity for her cause as well as for the school. However, the president of our school forbade this happening because the money did not go directly to the school--it went to cancer research instead. Everyone was livid.
