Dear AU,
I appreciate you calling me as an alumni to stay in contact. I understand the need for alumni donations. I fully intend to donate in the future.
However, until my student loans are paid off (and so long as the WONK campaign
continues), you’re shit outta luck
Love,
A satisfied, but suddenly poor, alumna
I had a similar experience with Mizzou about two years ago.
They started by asking to update my personal information, including if I wanted to update my employment status from “unemployed.” They then proceeded to hit me up for a donation.
Hey buddy, remember 30 seconds ago when I told you I was unemployed?
