W&M Alumnus Dedicates $1.2 Million Scholarship Former Tribe Football Players
http://www.tribeathletics.com/ViewArticl...=210212695
Richard ’65 and Carole ’65 Kraemer are establishing a robust scholarship endowment worth $1.2 million. The Kraemers created the endowment to honor two former William & Mary football players who have been among the most loyal Tribe fans over the last several decades – Richard E. Korns ’68 and Michael G. Weaver ’66 M.Ed. ’70.

RE: W&M Alumnus Dedicates $1.2 Million Scholarship Former Tribe Football Players
A very generous gift that will benefit the entire school. According to the link, this 1.2 is part of a $5 million commitment, with 1.5 of that going to athletics. It says they are also making gifts to the Tribe Club, Zable Stadium, and the Coaching fund. I assume those three make up the remaining $300,000 of the $1.5 million after the scholarship donation.
I wonder if this and the recent gift to Women's Basketball are tied to the committee report that came out. One of the aspects of that was targeted fundraising...if so, I think these are two examples of great targeting.
