Organizers of the College's United Way campaign

are aiming to top the 60 percent mark for campus participation.

“This is an attainable goal, but we need help to do

it,” said Kathy McCann, a campus coordinator for the drive.

“Between the 1996 and 1999 campaigns we've had a

participation rate increase of 19 percent,” McCann said. Last year's

participation rate was 56 percent, with College employees pledging more

than $38,000 to the United Way.

The campaign runs through November.
