What is the estimated actual number of living alums who donated in 2014-2015?

I just recently received my Rutgers Alumni magazine like many and was shocked to see what appears to be the dismal number of donators to the R Fund once again...My last contacts at RU had mentioned we had over 350- 400 k LIVING Alumni..so if most on here donate yearly ( for whatever area ) the rest of those sitting on their $$$$ should hang their heads in shame...The article stated 135 k donated in 2014-2015...Rutgers needs to do a much better job selling a vision for both academic and athletic success in a conference known for outstanding schools...Just returned from the mid west after a month and met folks from 2/3 of the conference affiliated schools...We pale in comparison not only in $$$$ but a pride factor as well...This is a factor also as to why New Jersey squeezes every dime out before it goes to the State University.

Aren't all alums who are contributing alive?

I would guess the % of donors is pretty high on this forum for those who post.

I know I did!

are the seat donations for those sitting in the premium seats considered a donation?
