UBC soliciting for donations.

Good point. If you were a student, as I was, there you already paid them several thousands.

UBC looking for money. Telling you how much they think is a suitable donation. Had to hang up because declining to donate just lead to a debate. Very annoying.

They keep calling. Must be donation. No message at all. Annoying

Hung up before I could answer. Caller ID says University BC.

I haven't answered...4 calls in five days

unless you belong to the negligible minority who refuse ANY medical treatment under any circumstances, you are just another self-righteous hypocrite. 'unnecessary' ?? when your family members suffer from cancer, or alzheimers or MS or who knows what else, and you see their suffering and pain, you wont be so simple minded as to brand our research (that is conducted under direct observation and approval of the CCAC, by the way) as un-necessary, and stick to tea and orange juice.
people such as yourself enjoy passing scientists as maniacs with a taste for animal flesh and blood and zero morality. I guess scapegoating us is a good way of easing your own consciences and pushing the burden right off your own shoulders.
just remember, darling, the next time you take a medication, its been animal tested. now, go ahead and take it, and when you're feeling better, take the time to blame us for doing your dirty work for you.

UBC looking for money

(604) 827-4173 Keeps calling me, even after I politely tell them I am not interested in donations.

same here, have been getting multiple calls from (604) 827-4173. i don't recognize the number so i don't answer. they never leave a message. i'm a UBC grad so makes sense it might be fundraising since there's no-one else who would be calling me from this area code... however if indeed it is UBC telemarketing, it's a TERRIBLE way to get any alumni funding!

I also have been getting a lot of calls from this number in the past couple weeks. It says Private. There is never any message left. It would make sense that it is the UBC fundraiser as my wife is an alumni and they are horribly insistent (they give us credit card offers!) I Googles this number because it seemed familiar and I thought it might be someone I know but I guess it is just this dumb UBC telemarketing call... I swear, that university is more of a property and money raising institution than a school these days.

Got a call earlier from this number with 'Private' on the call display with the number. I am also a UBC Alumni. No message was left.By the way, donating to UBC puts money into funding their cruel and unnecessary animal testing labs!!Don't give funds to UBC!
