We collect aggregate data — or totals of those visiting from a domain — not information identifying individual users. We use this information to help improve our site and our service to you.
- Personal information provided by you. If you fill out a form or survey, register for an event, update your alumni record, or make a gift through this Web site, we may collect your name, address, city, state, zip code, telephone number, e-mail address, or other personal information you have provided.

Secure Server Information
Our secure servers and software use SSL encryption, the industry standard and among the best software available today for secure commerce transactions. SSL encrypts all of your personal information, including credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet.
