Alumni January Newsletter Dear Milne Alumni and Supporters, In this issue: * Digitization Project Update! * Need News! * Sad News (Please note that links included in Milne Alumni Newsletters may at some point become obsolete.) DIGITIZATION PROJECT UPDATE! As of 01/14/14, our total is $12,592...so we're halfway to our goal! If you click here and then click on the donations link, you will see that there are many alumni who have not yet contributed to this important project. Please help us reach our goal so that we are able to digitize all available Crimson & White and Bricks & Ivy editions, which will enable us to enjoy full-text web access of many of our Milne yearbooks and/or newspapers via searchable files. If we, as Milne School Alumni, don't ensure that our memorabilia is preserved...who will? Please remember that the total necessary to complete this project is $25,000 (but, as with anything else, the price will rise as time passes)...so if you haven't yet donated or wish to increase your contribution, please consider doing so soon. Thank you very much to those who have already contributed. For further information, see https://www.albany.edu/~milne/Project.shtml. A list of donations is available at https://www.albany.edu/~milne/DigitizationDonations.pdf. If your donation does not yet appear on our list, please note that the University sends updates every two weeks. NEED NEWS! Unless you enjoy simply being reminded about our Digitization Project and learning who has passed away, PLEASE SEND NEWS!
