GIFTS AND GRANTS

Philanthropic giving to the University and its related foundations was $128.9million for the fiscal year through December 31st, an increase of $17.9million or 16% above the previous fiscal year. The College, the McIntire School, Athletics, the College at Wise, and the Law School all report substantial increases in giving.

Some significant gifts since the last Board meeting include $6,516,690 in gifts and pledge payments to the Virginia Athletics Foundation, the Jefferson Scholars Foundation, and the College for the Environmental Sciences Department from Paul Tudor Jones, II and Mrs. Sonia Klein Jones.

There was a bequest of $3,912,383.58 from the Estate of Henry N. Obear; $2million of this was designated for a professorship in classics and the remainder to the McIntire School of Commerce Foundation for several endowments. Albert H. Small gave $3,500,000 to the University Library; this consisted of a cash gift of $500,000 and another 30% interest in the copy of the Declaration of Independence.

The Rice Family Foundation pledged $9,600,000 to the Virginia Engineering Foundation for the Information Technology Building; there is an anonymous pledge of $5million to the Jefferson Scholars Foundation; Ms. Sonja L. Hoel has pledged $1,500,000 for scholarships in the Jerome Holland Program; and BB&T Corporation has pledged $1,500,000 to the College for a program to explore the moral foundation of capitalism.

The President recommended acceptance of the Gifts and Grants Report. On motion, the Board voted to accept it.

The President continued his report: fundraising for the John Paul Jones Arena stood at $100,883,776 as of December 31st. The construction cost for the project is $129.8million. The December 31st total doubles that raised by other schools who have built basketball arenas in recent years.
