Who Should Control Antioch?
But in an interview Friday, Lawry was explicit about the powers that he believes the board for the college needs: full control over the budget, endowment, curriculum and the hiring and firing presidents. Without that control, he said he believes that plans to revive the college at some future point in time won’t attract donations and are doomed to fail. "Skeptical alumni will not give financial support until the college is governed by a properly empowered board," Lawry said. In taking that approach, he was largely endorsing the views of alumni who have been raising money that they say they will not give to any entity controlled by the university. In a separate interview Friday, Toni Murdock, chancellor of the university, reiterated her belief that the college needs its own board, but also stressed that regardless of how much power is delegated, key decisions would be made in concert with her, and final authority would rest with the university’s board.

Online tax break tips for arts lovers
An online guide to tax breaks has been launched in an attempt to persuade arts lovers to donate to the Victoria & Albert Museum, the Tate and the National Gallery. Arts & Business, a charity set up to bring businesses and arts organisations together, has launched the site (www.AandB.org.uk/taxguide) to offer tips on how to take advantage of standard tax benefits such as Gift Aid and payroll giving schemes when donating to museums and arts groups. “A lot of people in the UK assume there is no tax break if you give to an arts organisation," explained Philip Spedding, senior programme manager with Arts & Business. “But there are some excellent ones available and they should play a part in why you support the arts."
