Minutes of the meetings of Alumni Board of Trustees, an incorporated organization

Its origin lay in the unwillingness of Andrew Carnegie to include state institutions

his donation of half a million dollars. At that time the University matched
Carnegie's gift with an equal amount, and the Alumni Centennial Endowment
Fund of 1925 is also administered by this corporation for the University.
