Andy Fee oversees athletic development for UC Santa Barbara and explains how the geographic location of its alumni means expansive reach to various places outside the local area. Fee talks about the goal to get to know the donor, to understand their needs and ensure that long-term gifting is done in manner that helps the university's core mission. A portion of the interview turns toward the subject of the tragedy of May 23, 2014 where the Isla Vista killings near the campus of UC Santa Barbara, where seven people were killed, and thirteen others received non-fatal injuries. Fee talks about how the campus community has sought to react to that worldwide news event, whether it is wise to suspend all funding activities or increase them, and how to respectfully honor those murdered without exploiting their deaths for financial gain.
