this unusual opportunity for alumni might well be the answer to two problems: financial security for the family, and support for the University

HELP YOURSELF... AND ALMA MATER In a move almost certain to be emulated by educational institutions across the nation, the University of Dayton is announcing the availability to alumni, and certain other University-related groups, of a newly devised program of convertible term life insurance-a program which should be extremely beneficial both to alumni and to the University. Through this most unu sual insurance plan, which the University is pioneering, an alumnus may obtain from $10,000 to $50,000 of financial security for his family at exceptionally low rates which represent a savings to himself. He can at the same time, if he wishes, provide most conveniently for a gift to his university or even to some other charitable institution or cause. Premium rates are remarkably low-in many instances as much as fifty per cent below a normal premium for identical coverage on an individual basis. The policy includes waiver of premiums in event of disability and participation in dividends declared. Only through the combined purchasing power of the alumni group is this program and its low rates possible. Why is the University undertaking such a program? There are two reasons. The first is a sincere desire on the part of the University to help alumni achieve valuable financial security for themselves and their families. This new program, with its low premium rate, can do just that : for the young alumnus, it can provide the ideal base on which to build an adequate life insurance program, a vital factor in every estate plan; for the older alumnus, it can become the ideal supplement for a program already in operation-a supplement which he might not otherwise be able to afford. For some, who because of poor health or occupation may not be able to purchase insurance, this can be the answer to obtaining protection for the family.

The second reason is an all-out effort by the University to build its endowment fund. This new insu rance program, because of its unique features, makes it possible for an alumnus to contribute to the University and its endowment fund in a most economical way. This can be done by assigning a part-or even the whole -of the policy proceeds to the University. Through this plan an alumnus can make a more significant contribution than he may have believed possible previously.

* * * *

A more detailed look at endowment funds in general will bring the picture of the University's need into sharper focus. This nation's finest colleges and universities over the years have been recipients of generous endowments and bequests. Income from such funds has made it possible for those schools to build distinguished faculties and to meet other costs of instruction and operation without being forced to rely principally on tuition charges. Thus, with roughly half of higher education's costs being borne by endowment funds, the student has had to supply but half of the cost of his education. The continual building of a strong faculty-the key to academic stature and at the same time the most costly item on the educational budget-is a most important facet of the University's planning. The University of Dayton, as well as many another college, has increased its tuition charges over the years to meet these rising costs. Now, at twenty-one dollars a credit hour, it is as high as is feasible . Setting an even higher price tag on a University of Dayton education might well place it out of the reach of many. Yet costs continue to rise. That is why colleges such as the University of Dayton need more contributions than ever before from their

alumni and other supporters. Increased endowment funds, rather than further increases in tuition charges and other fees, must be the answer to meeting spiraling costs of operation and expansion.

* * * * The University of Dayton has had an endowment fund for a long time. It is, unfortunately, modest in size, approximately one and a half million dollars. "Sadly-under-endowed" is how the University's situation may be described, when compared to similar schools. To counteract this situation the University is

launching a formidable campaign to build its endowment to such an extent that it will be able to: ONE-Limit tuition increases in the years ahead; TWO-Strengthen its faculty; THREE-Provide better facilities for a growing student body, and thereby produce stronger graduates than ever before; FOUR-Provide more scholarships. Specifically, it is the goal of the University to develop the endowment fund to a level that, within ten to fifteen years, income from that fund will support every academic chair and scholarship on the campus.

ENDOWMENT FUND NEEDS $25,000

to support $1,000 scholarships; unlimited number needed.

$300,000

to support a professor's chair, $12,000 annually; 250 chairs needed.

$400,000

to support a department head's chair, $16,000 annually; 40 chairs needed.

$500,000

to support a dean's chair, $20,000 annually; 12 chairs needed.

One individual's endowment fund may provide all the capital needed to fund a scholarship or chair, or a number of individual endowment fund programs may be grouped together to fund a chair or scholarship.

This is indeed a most ambitious goal. To attain it, increased contributions will be needed from many alumni and other friends, since as an independent, non taxsupported institution, financial assistance can come from few other sources. The University feels strongly that through the utilization of this new insurance program and its remarkable features, alumni will be able to accept this endowment fund challenge and provide for alma mater the assistance so sorely needed. Endowment fund needs and some random examples of premium rates and philanth ropic possibilities of the

plan are included here in The ALUMNUS. Complete details on all features and benefits, the complete premium rate schedule, and other facets of this insurance plan will be mailed to alumni all over the world within the next several days. It is the urgent hope of the University that the program will appeal strongly to every alumnus; th at he will closely study it both from hi s own point of view and from the University's; that he will, for hi s own benefit and the University's, take advantage of it. Much is to be gai ned by both . Remember: you can help yourself . . . and alma mater.

How you can help alma mater through the Insurance Program Consider what a young graduate, age 23, recently married could do. He can purchase $10,000 of life insurance protection and, if he makes the University beneficiary of $1,000

of the proceeds, his outlay of $27, including charge for administration, for the entire $10,000 would be less than that what he would normally pay elsewhere for the remaining $9,000 of protection for his wife!

Another young graduate, same age, might find it possible that for an additional amount of only $9.50, which could be arranged to be income tax-deductible, he could provide that the full $10,000 be payable to his wife with a balance of $5,000 payable to the University of Dayton! Consider another alumnus, age 32, with a $7,500 taxable income (22% bracket). It would be possible for him to establish a $10,000 Endowment Fund for an initial outlay of only $32. With the policy arranged to provide a current income tax deduction his actual cost for the year would be only $25- just about fifty cents a week to establish such a worthwhile program! Consider what an alumnus, age 48, with a $25,000 taxable income (43% tax bracket) could do: to establish a $50,000 Endowment Fund at the University for memorial scholarships, it would require an initial outlay of only $418. With the policy arranged to obtain current income tax deduction, his actual cost for the year would be only $238 to establish such a valuable fund!

Highlights of the new insurance program in brief: •

Every contract is an individual term insurance policy.

•

All alumni, senior class students, faculty, and employees of the University of Dayton, under age 70, are eligible to enroll.

•

Minimum policy is $10,000 for men, $5,000 for women.

•

Maximum policy is $50,000.

•

The policy is non-cancellable by the company.

•

Coverage is continuous to age 75.

•

Waiver of premium is provided in event of total disability.

•

Dividends declared will be paid in cash.

•

No physical examination is required for a minimum policy for those under 45 or who have graduated since 1940, if certain group quotas are met.

•

You can convert to any other permanent plan without physical examination after only one year.

•

You may divide the benefits between your family and the University as you desire.

•

You have from Sept. 15 to Dec. 15, 1963, to enroll in this program. You will receive a brochure and application blank within the next week.

Robert J. Wagner '50, the University's new assistant director of development for charitable giving programs, confers with Hugh E. Wall Jr. '34, Dayton attorney who now heads a committee on wills, bequests, annuities, and insurance.

Bob Wagner and Hugh Wall to develop giving program Support of higher education becomes more challenging each day. In the case of the private college in particular, no possible avenue of assistance can be overlooked, since the very existence and future of independent higher education may well be at stake. An area of increasing importance in charitable giving for education is that of wills, bequests, annuities, and insurance (U.D.'s newly announced insurance program is a prime example). Much work needs to be done in this area by the University. Thus, the University has appointed Robert J. Wagner to the new position of Assistant Director of Development in charge of Programs for Charitable Giving. Wagner is a 1950 alumnus with wide experience in insurance and related work and is a life member of the Million Dollar Round Table of life underwriters.

Others may be added to the committee as acceptances are received. Members of the committee are Ben Berryman, C.P.A., Ernst & Ernst; Charles H. Boesch, Attorney, Boesch & Short; Joseph F. Connelly, Vice President & Trust Officer, Third National Bank & Trust Co.; Samuel L. Finn, Attorney, Estabrook, Finn & McKee; William S. Fry, C.P.A., Wm. S. Fry and Co.; Julian A.

1931 MONSIGNOR FREDERICK G . HOCHWALT, guiding light and spokesman for Catholic education in the United States, was one of five respected educators t.o be awarded honorary doctorates in June by Marquette University. In accepting the Doctor of Laws, the Monsignor was cited as follows: " Right Reverend Monsignor Frederick George Hochwalt, eminent Catholic priest and Catholic educator, has served as Executive Secretary of the National Catholic Educational Association since 1944. Ever since his ordination to the priesthood in 1935, Monsignor Hochwalt has dedicated his life to the development, improvement, and understanding of Catholic education in America. "As priest, he has stood as mediator between God and men, praising God with his own accomplishments and those of his fellowmen , and sanctifying men with the riches of God's graces. As educator, and particularly as Executive Secretary of the National Catholic Educational Association, he has tirelessly striven to be a mediator between what is best in Catholic education and in other systems of education in America and throughout the world. As educational statesman and spokesman, he has successfully interpreted to the educational world of which we are a vital part the true meaning and importance of Catholic education. At the same time he has developed Catholic education itself by infusing into it the best educational thinking of our time. Significantly, he has, by so doing, been recognized as a firm champion of the rights of private education in our pluralistic society. "Whether as director of the Department of Education of the National Catholic Welfare Conference, or as advisor for many years to the United States delegation to UNESCO ; whether as a member of the United States Educational Commission to Japan in 1946 and 1950, or as an active participant in the deliberations of the American Council on Education ; whether as a guiding light to the Catholic Commission on Intellectual and Cultural Affairs, or as a leader in the Catholic Association for International Peace, Monsignor Hochwalt has literally spent his priestly life in working for the improvement of Catholic education. "Because of these significant activities and outstanding contributions to the growth and improvement of Catholic and private education, he has merited many awards and honorary degrees. Today the University which in 1956 bestowed upon him the Pere Marquette Award for distinguished service now adds an even more significant tribute to him and judges that he has merited the degree of Doctor of Laws, honoris causa." 1932 RAYMOND CLEMENS, director of food service at the University, has been elected president of the Dayton Food Service Executives association. 1933 TOM DEVINE has completed three years as sports editor of the Miami Daily News ( Florida) .

As I look back over the past 25 years since the start of the affiliation between U.D. and the School of the Art Institute, many happy and rewarding experiences come to mind. It has been such a satisfying relationship. All of the people with whom we have dealt have been such wonderful people, and we have had such fine types of young people come to us from the University. Those of us who have been here so long have many happy memories of a very happy association. KATHRYN PINKNEY Information Assistant The Dayton Art Institute

Editor: In the summer number of The ALUMNUS, on the back cover, you listed graduate programs at the University. You failed to mention, however, the master of science in biology, a program we feel is one of the finest now being given. It was started last January, and we hope to see the first master's awarded through the program next June. DR. PAUL MACHOWICZ, S.M. Chairman, Department of Biology

Editor: May I call to your attention an error which appeared on the back cover of the summer issue of The ALUMNUS? You listed graduate degrees being offered by the University, but incorrectly listed "Master of Education." The graduate degree awarded by the School of Education is the "Master of Science in Education." We wish you would call this to the attention of your readers, many of whom have a direct interest in the proper name of this degree and what it represents. DR. LOUIS J. FAERBER, S.M. Dean, School of Education
