A total of 250 business establishments knew they were coming, having received a letter from the co- chairmen of the fund drive. Hector MacLean and Joe Sandlin. the two top officials of Southern National Bank and Corpora tion. By noon Tuesday ten of the teams had reported that $28. 825 had been received in cash or pledges. Together with the $168,750 which had been raised in cash before Friday. Psu has $19b.5~5 toward its $1 million goal b\ 1987. Many of the teams going out last Friday are reporting this week. "This is the firs' 'inte we've ever had a one-day fund like jd 1 Vfldvhancwor Paul Chens' of PSU. who is the one who really cranked up I'SU's fund raising efforts when he b<! came chancellor in 197*). The Cenlennia! Board was treated to an elaborate break fast at Lumberton's Rantada Inn before beginning last Friday's big effort. "Each of the two- man teams should have a goal of raising $3.0(X) a year lor each of these three years." said Sandlin. "We should seek a three-year commitment on pledges." When Chancellor Giveus came to PSL in |97y, fie asked what was the University's endowment. "What endow ment?" was the answer. "Wc now have an endowment of $120,000. which is movinc upward."" But he noted a small school in Illinois with a $30 million endowment. "Harvard has a $2.4 billion endow ment, the University of Texas $2.2 billion. Wake Forest $126 million. UNC $59 million, and Davidson $3b million." _ "The"grotrp going otrr xltou la-ifi j in a spirit that "it is blessed t*? give." MacLean reminded ihe jreakfast body of the days when Robeson County "had no industry." He said. "We had two worn-out cotton mills. Our high school graduates couldn't find work. The coun ty population was going down instead of up. We now face a serious economic develop ment. Tobacco is not going to come back like it once was. We are going to have to get more industry." MacLean said unemploy ment in the Raleigh-Durham Chapel Hill area is less than 3 percent, the least unemploy ment in the country. "Those universities up there are vital reasons. They draw industries and jobs. PSU is a vital cog in ouPwhuIe wheel in changing our economic situ ation. It will help us have jobs and keep our young people home." In conclusion. MacLean re minded the Centennial Board of 100 that "60 percent of PSU's 2.000-plus students come from Robeson County." - - as it continues to serve us well," he said.
