In my experience, the people who do the complaining are the last ones to open a pocketbook.

irregardless, you have no right to complain about donations until you have made one. If it were as important to you as you claim, you could buy a car that costs 100 dollars less and give a little to the cause.

Excuses, excuses, excuses...right now my funds are going towards a mortgage, two cars, student loans, utilities, food, daycare, etc, etc....you get the picture. The point is that there is strength in numbers as transfer has pointed out. If everyone affiliated with University (e.g. faculty, alumni, students, fans) was to make a small donation, before you knew it you have considerable cash support generated. Unfortunately, the reality is that most people come with excuses as to why they cannot afford to give even the smallest amount to support BGSU (insert cause here). :cry:

STOP THE PRESSES! Transfer is quoting Bush in a non-pejorative way! ;) (I think...)

In my experience it is the ones who can least afford donations (those with daycare, mortgages, loans etc.) who give the most.

That is correct too. Percentage wise to what they make, it is not even close.
