Thank you: 'The two words no one says nearly enough'

By Caitlin O'Donnell

From Nov. 8-10, at various locations around campus, students, faculty and staff will be able to write thank you notes to donors to the university, with the goal of reaching 1,000. "It's the two words that no one says nearly enough but everyone wants to hear," said Amanda Zamzes, program assistant for donor relations, who has been instrumental in planning the event. "We're just providing a venue so that those who want to say thank you have the ability to do so." Student volunteers will man the tables, which will include blank cards, a fish bowl full of names to draw from and a thermometer filled with acorns marking the progress of the event.
