44 DEANS AND DEVELOPMENT graduates will not overlap, but the wealthiest Arts and Sciences alumni likely ended up owning or running a business. If the business school consistently approaches them on that basis, rather than on their under- graduate major, conflict ensues. Solid communication must occur with Arts and Sciences and business to avoid difficulty; in most cases, this means respectful solicitation that allows a donor to choose. The advan- tage the Arts and Sciences dean has is that donors may believe their liberal education was the ticket to their business success; the disad- vantage is that donors who succeed in business are so used to talking money that they might establish a better rapport with the business dean who occupies their world than with the Arts and Sciences dean who is grounded in linguistics or computational chemistry. Other professional schools present fewer issues. The professional schools usually associated with the historic land-grant University (agri- culture, architecture, engineering, forestry, and marine sciences) tend to produce alumni with disparate earning potential. Those in engineering or architecture may fare well, while the average agriculture graduate may not. But the larger point is that, apart from general education, these graduates do not intersect much with Arts and Sciences during their college matriculation. Usually there is no reason for them to wish to support the Arts and Sciences financially. Conflict related to fund- raising rarely ensues. Professional schools of education and health sciences present contrasting situations. Education produces secondary school teachers with a healthy dose of Arts and Sciences in a content area, but with few opportunities for wealth accumulation if their graduates remain teachers throughout their careers (occasional exceptions are the tight- fisted or the dual-career couple). The fundraising task with school of education graduates is to filter them carefully for giving capacity because in most cases it will be quite limited; it is a task that falls to the school of education fundraising operation. Similar circumstances may exist with undergraduates in the health sciences, but those with completed grad- uate degrees may be quite well positioned to contribute. Jurisdictional or donor conflict with Arts and Sciences is more likely to happen with education than with health sciences.
