...responsibility of University leaders—instead, an inherent level of suspicion arises when giving to what some perceive as a “slush fund.”Fundraising numbers for the current fiscal year are not yet available, and the numbers for May and June—which comprise the final push for class reunion fundraising—typically boost year-end results. Thus far, University administrators say that donors have been receptive to the change in fundraising strategy. “Ask us 3 months ago and we would not have predicted it,” University...

...people to newspapers by offering to pay for home delivery of any title of their choice for one day a week during the year of their 18th birthday. Since such schemes aren't likely to do the trick for French papers, it makes sense for publishers to search for ways to eliminate costs before they occur.
