Additionally, academic leaders have turned to philanthropic agencies, scholarly associations, and other umbrella organizations to address academic labor shortages, in many cases, providing temporary positions for recent Ph.D.'s in the form of research fellowships. This case study explores the contributory role of scholarly associations advancing foundation-supported interventions in the humanities, focusing on the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) during the Great Recession of 2008. We draw on several data collection strategies, including social network analysis to map research fellowship activity and in-depth interviews with institutional leaders, program officers, and grant recipients to assess doctoral student outcomes and organizational practices. Our findings demonstrated that during the economic crisis, fellowships directed toward newly minted Ph.D.s were effective at providing a lifeline for hundreds of early-career humanists, many of whom were able to secure a tenure-track position when the academic labor market improved. Moreover, through such investments, major funders and disciplinary associations supported early career scholars by conferring prestige and sponsoring affiliations across universities that promoted the interchange of ideas, resources, and status. While not providing solutions to structural problems, relatively modest philanthropic investments can propel careers, stimulate scholarly activity, and confer social capital during crisis times.","PeriodicalId":343186,"journal":{"name":"Philanthropy & Education","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122792911","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We used a longitudinal national sample (1988–2018) of approximately 400 public and private institutions from the Voluntary Support of Education (VSE) survey. In the sample of mostly 4-year institutions, giving increased by an inflation-adjusted average of 3.6% annually and 175% overall, from $9.1 billion to $25.1 billion (2018 dollars). All donor types gave more dollars, gifts supported a broad range of purposes, and all institutional types benefited. Four notable trends include: an increase in the proportion of donations from organizations, and especially foundations, rather than individuals; an early shift in funding toward capital/endowment purposes but then back to current operations since 1998; designation of a larger proportion of funds for restricted, rather than unrestricted, purposes; and a higher proportion of dollars contributed to public, as compared to private institutions. Within sector trends reveal that increased giving to public institutions partly accounts for the rising proportions of both organizational donations and donations for current operations purposes. This study fills gaps in the scholarly literature about higher education philanthropy and provides information for institutional leaders to benchmark fundraising trends and prepare for the future.","PeriodicalId":343186,"journal":{"name":"Philanthropy & Education","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122852451","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This exploratory, qualitative study indicated that advisory boards in student affairs' units were making important contributions in six impactful areas: (1) To provide advice to the vice president of student affairs; (2) To offer financial and social capital; (3) To create a connection between student affairs and institutional advancement; (4) To encourage external stakeholders involvement with undergraduate students; (5) To increase visibility of student affairs beyond campus; and (6) To serve as a model of excellence for the rest of campus. Ironically, although the boards are termed “advisory,” this topic was only included in the written documents such as advisory board bylaws, but not in the interviews with university employees who oversaw boards on their campuses. The interviews revealed that the board members were able to bridge connections from communities to campus and vice versa. The linkages were useful for spreading positive news about students and student affairs as well as creating opportunities ranging from internships to finding locations for campus buildings to additional fundraising.","PeriodicalId":343186,"journal":{"name":"Philanthropy & Education","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124548795","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A qualitative approach was used to gauge the propensity and intrinsic desires of these alumni to either give, or not give, monetary support to Theodore. Data analysis included values coding that highlighted and identified how the participants experienced the phenomenon of philanthropy. This study was designed around social exchange theory and the assumption that a series of interactions generate obligations to give monetary donations. Findings from this study included: participants who had a closer connection to the university and had been approached for a specific request to support Theodore were more likely to give, give more frequently, and give larger amounts; financial donations to Theodore were much less compared to other nonprofit organizations; participants who had strong motivations to give also felt a strong connection to their team, a coach, a faculty member, academic department, or athletic department. This study fills a gap in the recent scholarly literature about the psychology and altruism of philanthropic support of student-athlete alumni to their alma mater.","PeriodicalId":343186,"journal":{"name":"Philanthropy & Education","volume":"150 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122015740","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
