Frequently Asked Questions
How does this work?
First, a letter from the head agent for your class will go out to all
your classmates each fiscal year. During your reunion year you will then
select ten classmates that you feel very comfortable calling personally.
Your main objective will then be to follow up by calling your ten
selections and personally asking them to make a gift to the UE Alumni
Scholarship Fund. This is a great way to catch up with old friends and
help UE!
How much time is really involved?
It will take approximately two hours to make 10 calls every five years.
There is also some paperwork that will need to be filled out and sent to
UE. This probably will add another 30 minutes.
What do you mean by "my own commitment"?
We think it's very important for all Class Agents to be willing to make
yearly gifts to UE in order to ask others to do the same. Many of you
already do this. We ask you to continue that support during your term as
a UE Class Agent - and long after!
