Our AD has/had nothing to do with this. As Dawgpix pointed out, this has been needed for years. There are THOUSANDS of potential givers out there who have never been contacted. Hopefully this is the beginning of reaching out to them.
Re: Forever Loyal Capital Campaign
Anybody found this to be the most anticlimactic capital campaign ever?

Re: Forever Loyal Capital Campaign
I will be the first to admit that I am one of those donors who hasn't been fired up to give the last couple of years. When they cut my program and I wasn't able to finish my degree with only 18 hours to go, it kinda hurt my feelings a little bit. I finish at Alabama this May and have watched with awe how the best of the best do it. My boys are going to go to Tech and if Tech is lucky my 12 yo old will sign with them when the time comes. I still love my first school but given all the busy life in front of me, I haven't found a reason to give. I am probably going to donate a sizable sum to this campaign since I had advocated for it for decades but it won't be with the enthusiasm I once enjoyed.
Re: Forever Loyal Capital Campaign
We should have called this “Ever Loyal.” Calling it “Forever” copies LSU and I can’t stand that.
Re: Forever Loyal Capital Campaign
We are not in a position to donate right now, but this is one of the few times a phone call would be nice. Oh well.

Yup. I might have just hit the powerball. I might even be ready to break off a $10MM chunk for Tech.
But I guess they'll never know. Oh well ...
Re: Forever Loyal Capital Campaign
I think I had a call late last year. They haven't got me on speed dial, but they do call regularly.

If you live around here you see the “Forever LSU” slogan all the time.
