Human Ecology students telephoned more than 800 alumni and friends of the college during this year’s telefund asking for contributions to fund urgently-needed scholarships. They collected promises of more than $117,000.

Ninety percent of the funds go toward scholarship and 10 percent for recruitment. More than 200 students volunteered their time Feb. 22 to 25, said Cara Richardson, events director.
