...Class of ’06 Senior Gift House Competition kicked off last Thursday, aiming to avoid the controversy that surrounded the event last year. Last spring, Matthew W. Mahan ’05 and Brandon M. Terry ’05 established “Senior Gift Plus,” which protested University investment in PetroChina, a company with ties to the Sudanese government. This rift fostered concerns among students about exactly how their donations were being spent, and the campaign registered its lowest participation rate since 1999.

Last year, the situation on campus had many convinced that Senior Gift was just another avenue to express indignation with the University. Former Undergraduate Council President Matthew W. Mahan ’05 and former Black Men’s Forum President Brandon M. Terry ’05 started “Senior Gift Plus,” which promised to withhold seniors’ donations until the University divested from PetroChina, a company intimately involved with the Sudanese government and by extension with the genocide in Darfur. Still more seniors were dissuaded from donating by University President Lawrence...
