The university also received $1.1
million in research funds and $1 mil
lion for museum, library and fine arts
funding, according to the press re
lease. The rest of the funds were di
vided among a variety of areas, Morin
said.
The market value of foundation
assets, which determines how much
funding is available to the university,
reached a record $244.8 million in
fiscal year 1991, Klein said. This value
increasedby $28.2 million over fiscal
year 1990.
The foundation is a non-profit
corporation created to supplement NU
student and faculty support, academic
programs and facilities. The founda
tion achieves thisihrough donations
and investments from alumni, friends,
corporations and other foundations.
According to the press release, gifts
and investments to the NU Founda
tion amounted to $39.3 million in
Fiscal year 1991, the third highest
total in the foundation’s history. This
amount exceeded the expectations of
the foundation, Klein said.
“This year, we had no major do
nor, yet without a major donor we
were still able to reach $26.3 million
in gifts alone,” she said.
In fiscal year 1990, the NU Foun
dation received a record $46.4 mil
lion in gifts and investments, partly
due to $6 million donated by the Lied
Foundation.
Donations have increased over the
past decade, Klein said.

“A decade ago, our total gifts and
investments reached $10 million,” she
said. “This amount has snowballed
since then.”
The foundation relies on the loy
alty of alumni and Friends of the
Foundation for contributions, Klein
said.
“Loyalty is the starting point in
making a charitable contribution,” she
said,
Klein said she didn’t think 1992
donations would be affected by the
1991 total of gifts and investments.
“Tbe amount of donations and
contributions we receive relies on a
broad spectrum of factors,” she said.
“It’s mainly an individual choice.”
Recycle

He said Doug Zatechka, UNL di
rector of housing, “will probably sit
down with ASUN and discuss other
appropriate uses for the recycling
money.”
Ultimately, the program will en
compass the collection of glass and
paper in addition to aluminum.
“We are trying to be successful
first, and then we will concentrate on
the paper and glass issues after we
have student’s support,” he said.
Glass and paper pose logistical
problems because they are heavy and
hard to store and sort, he said. Also, it
is harder to justify the costs of recy
cling paper because there is little profit.
