Thread: UL Foundation Report

  1. Default Re: UL Foundation Report

    Did the ULLAA ever grant graduates a free membership year upon graduation?

    Did they continue the automobile license plate trim plate gifting to new graduates?
    Thought that was a great move, can’t monetize that type of advertising.

    Endowed Professorships: $2M
    Chairs: $2M
    Scholarship Funds: $2M
    Other: $577K

    Endowed Funds provided 3.4% of total UL budget.

    UL 'Together' Campaign: $453M raised (90% of $500M goal)
    Capital Support: $100M
    Dept/Program Support: $286M
    Scholarships/Student Support: $41M
    Faculty Support: $26M

    9 New Chairs (Including UL's 1st In Librarianship)
    48 New Endowed Professorships
    190 New Endowed Scholarships

    Stupid question, but how can we have raised $453 million with this campaign but only have $222 million in the endowment?

    Lots went to capital campaigns. Over many years.

    The bulk was for other purposes?

    Since 2017, there is no longer charge for anyone who graduated from the university to become an Alumni Association general member. As a graduate of UL (or SLI or USL), you are automatically a member of the Alumni Association and receive basic membership benefits. There is an event put on by the Alumni Association called Grad Expo where information about the association is handed out along with being able to order cap and gowns, pictures, rings etc. They are reminded to keep their contact information up to date in order to continue receiving information from the association. Some bling is handed out at that event but don't know if the automobile trim plate is. There is also a champagne (or non-alcoholic version if desired) toast for graduates at the Alumni Center where those who participate receive a branded champagne flute.

    Thanks.

    The license plate gift is kind of a no brainer. The more the state sees “Louisiana Alumni” the better.

    I wonder if our TSAb loving alumni would put those on their vehicles.

    Tulane University: As of June 30, 2022, Tulane's endowment was $2.05 billion, a new high.
    Xavier University of Louisiana (XULA): XULA's endowment is just over $170 million.
    University of Louisiana at Lafayette: In 2021, the endowment for the University of Louisiana at Lafayette was $232 million.
    Loyola University New Orleans: In 2017, the endowment for Loyola University New Orleans was $234.5 million.

    Cannot vouch for validity of numbers.
