Witherspoon, 'Freshmen Donate Money', NCSU Libraries Newsletter v18n06 (September 1991) _The NCSU Libraries Newsletter_ Volume 18 no. 6 September 1991 Witherspoon, Adrienne Y. "Freshmen Donate Money" During freshman orientation this August, approximately 1,600 students contributed funds in support of the NCSU Libraries. Students were informed about the library's financial difficulties and asked to donate their "loose change." Michael Buck, head orientation counselor, initiated the request along with Mick Borden, assistant director of Student Affairs. The orientation staff set a $500 goal, and incoming freshmen cheerfully raised more than $446. The library is delighted with the initiative and support shown by the students and the orientation and student affairs staff.
