This year's senior gift will mark the official inception of the Senior Class Triton Fund, which will provide scholarships and extracurricular programming for years to come. "This is a formative year," said Vice-Chairperson of the Senior Gift Campaign Committee and Eleanor Roosevelt College sophomore David Goodwin. "Over the next few years, we hope to accumulate somewhere around $30,000 that we could leave in the [endowment] fund and be able to get interest from." After attaining this goal, the interest earned by the permanent senior gift account will supplement the monetary donations of future senior classes. "In the past, the senior gift was planned by any random senior who approached the Annual Giving people," according to Chairperson of the senior gift Campaign Committee and Revelle College sophomore Melissa Tsang. "Usually, the gift was not decided until the beginning of spring quarter, which is pretty late." In years past, there were few occasions when no one came forward to shoulder the responsibility, Tsang said. The most recent example of this is the absence of a senior gift from the class of 1997. Past gifts were often tangible objects that were useful, but mostly went unnoticed. For example, in 1992 and 1993, the gifts were recycling receptacles. "That doesn't give any sense of continuity, which is something we really need, given the general lack of philanthropic spirit on this campus," Goodwin said. As a response to these problems, last year the Annual Giving Office of UCSD approached the Student Foundation to form a committee that would direct the planning of the senior gift. The group includes members of the Student Foundation, A.S. Council officers and the senior senators of the five colleges. Two members of Annual Giving also assist the student group. This is the second year that the Senior Gift Campaign Committee has convened.
