I am a Development Assistant/Coordinator for a College of Science of a university.
I am the liaison between the College and University Foundation. I make sure everyone's on the right page, which I have found is a lot harder than it one would think.
Basically Development Directors meet with rich people to try and convince them to donate to the College of Science. If they are successful in securing money to give a kid a scholarship or fund faculty research, I put together a gift agreement laying out how the money will be spent. When the money is spent, I report on how it was spent. I track down students so that they can tell me happy stories about how the money helped them make their academic dreams come true. I take the really smart speak of the faculty and dumb it down.
I host parties for the rich people. I get faculty members to participate in dog and pony shows. I tell the communications people if I come across newsworthy stories. I write a blog on science discoveries at the university.
I basically make rich people feel good about the dough they coughed up.
I'm also an aspiring prostitute.
JK...I'm not aspiring to be one, I am one.
