  • Stephen Ashley ’62 Talks Fannie Mae, Capital Campaign

    By Emily Cohn October 17, 2008

    With the Board of Trustees convening in Ithaca this weekend for their annual meeting, The Sun sat down with Stephen Ashley ’62, MBA ’64 to discuss his role as co-chair of the $4 billion capital campaign. Ashley is currently the chairman and CEO of The Ashley Group, a collection of real estate, brokerage and investment companies. In September, Ashley resigned as chairman of the mortgage giant Fannie Mae, after the government-sponsored enterprise was placed into conservatorship by the U.S. Treasury.

    The Sun: The Capital Campaign has raised an impressive $2.29 billion to date. How would you describe your role with the campaign as co-chair?

  • Capital Campaign Ahead of Schedule

    By Ming Dang October 11, 2007

    “We have work to do,” said President David Skorton on Oct. 26, 2006 when he officially announced the launch of Cornell’s capital campaign.
    Less than a year later, it seems the administration has taken its president’s words to heart, having raised $1.72 billion out of the proposed $4 billion over five years.
    “The campaign has made very strong progress since our public launch last October,” said Jim Mazza, campaign director. “During the past fiscal year, which ended June 30, Cornell had its most successful fundraising year in its history, with $754.8 million in new gifts and commitments, with nearly $300 million designated to priorities on the Ithaca campus and the balance to initiatives at Weill Cornell Medical College.
