SPONSORS WANTED TOO!
Alumni and Community Business People
The Wang Center Planner is currently given free to students until
supplies run out. There are two goals. The first is to eventually make it
available to all students, faculty, staff, and the local community. The second
is to take the first part of it, minus the planner pages, for use as a
guidebook to be given to all visitors to the Wang Center.
The number printed is contingent upon the donors who sponsor it, with a
current minimum guarantee of one thousand. There will be a page recognizing
you or your business for your generosity in making it available, and you will
be recognized on the SBU AA E-Zine in each issue as well.
But more importantly, you
will be educators. The Wang Center Planner is
much more than just pretty photos, philosophical
quotes, monthly
calendars, and pages for musings. It is
a cross cultural learning
experience that teaches the symbolism in the Asian design, the
concepts
behind the Tower to Heaven, the history and importance
of stupas and pagodas
in Eastern
culture and how they unite the world architecturally - just gaze up at the
Empire State Building!
