1-AETHE.o191C.l52 The Alumni THE CORNELLIAN COUNCIL The fund-raising agency of Cornell University is the Cor- nellian Council. The Council was organized in 1908 and resulted from a desire on the part of a large number of alumni to make systematic annual gifts to the University. The founders of the Council also had in mind the idea of doing away with the indiscriminate and merely occasional solicitation of the alumni and of having all appeals for the University's needs by one organization vested with authority. The work of the Council is promoted by representatives- one or more from each Cornell Club throughout the world, one or more from all geographical districts where there are no active clubs, a man and a woman from each class graduated, and a number of at-large members elected by the Council. The i Executive Committee and the oflicers of the Council are selected . k from these representatives and constitute the controlling body. 1 a There is a paid executive staff at Ithaca to carry on the active routine work of raising the funds. lt is to these representatives, Prffiflwf or agents, on the Council that Cornell looks for aid in various campaigns for funds. PAUL A. SCHOELLKOPF, '06 Most of the gifts made through the Cornellian Council are unrestricted as to their use and con- stitute the Alumni Fund. lt is this fund which is resorted to when Cornell is faced with the loss of a member of the Faculty whose services are sought elsewhere at a larger salary, and when the Presi- dent and Trustees need funds with which to balance the University budget and to meet emergency needs as they arise. Many gifts have likewise been made to Cornell through the Council for specific purposes, including the gifts of 31,500,000 for Myron Taylor Hall and nearly s5oo,0oo for the War Memorial. During the liscal year which ended June 30, 1930, 10,136 alumni and former students contributed to the Alumni Fund. All annual contributors to the Alumni Fund are members of the Cornellian Council. Paul A. Schoellkopf, '06, the President of the Cornellian Council, has long been prominently identified with the Council's work, and with alumni activities. He is a nationally known figure in hydro-electric power industry, in which the Schoellkopf family has been outstanding for several generations. He is at present the President of the Niagara-Hudson Power Company, and an oflicer and director in many other public utility companies, as well as a director in several educational and charitable organizations. Mr. Schoellkopf has been a member of the Cornellian Council for many years, and in 1919-20, he filled the position of Chairman of the Semi-Centennial Endowment Committee in Niagara Falls. He has been Vice-President and a member of the Executive Committee of the Council for two years. ln 1914, Paul Schoellkopf joined with the other members of the Schoellkopf family in making a hand- some gift to Cornell University which made possible the construction of Schoellkopf Field, named for the founder of the Schoellkopf family in this country. The otlicers ofthe Cornellian Council for the current year are: Paul A. Schoellkopf, '06, President, Nlaxwcll Nl. Upson, '99, Edward E. Soule, '88, Allan C. Balch, '89, and William G.
