Book excerpt: This study examined the institutional advancement programs of successful American private/Catholic universities, two private universities in the United Sates, and two institutions in the Congo. Funding strategies constitute the backbone of advancement programs for successful American private universities/colleges. This study also investigated the funding mechanisms that successful private universities in the United States utilized to obtain philanthropic dollars. Further, the research assessed the roles of the successful private university presidents and trustees, and determined how public relations impacted the institutional advancement results of those institutions. Finally, the results of this investigation suggested practical applications for the Congolese/African universities. Grunig s Four Models of Public Relations (1992) provided the conceptual framework of this research. Grunig developed the assumption that excellent private organizations, such as private universities/colleges in the United States, utilized the two-way symmetric model of public relations/communication, which accounted for the advancement effectiveness of those institutions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do university leaders know if their institution's efforts to raise private gifts are effective? With so many presidents, provosts, and deans having very little hands-on experience in fundraising, this is often a difficult question to answer. What is not difficult is to see that the need for private gifts will only continue to escalate, particularly at public universities that have seen state investment in high education deteriorate. Fundraising topics covered in this volume include: The growing role of private giving in financing the modern university The Foundation-Institution Partnership: The Role of Institutionally Related Foundations in Public Higher Education The Challenge of Funding Fundraising Leading the Way: The Role of Presidents and Academic Deans in Fundraising Determining the Success of Fundraising Programs Integrating Development, Alumni Relations, and Marketing for Fundraising Success Balancing Fundraising in Academic Programs and Intercollegiate Athletics Prospect Development Systems: Empowering Artful Fundraising Recruiting, Training, and Retaining High-Performance Development Teams This is the 149th issue of the Jossey-Bass higher education quarterly report series New Directions for Higher Education. Addressed to presidents, vice presidents, deans, and other higher-education decision-makers on all kinds of campuses, New Directions for Higher Education provides timely information and authoritative advice about major issues and administrative problems confronting every institution.
