Well....as one who works for a public college....I would imagine whomever you donated that too.....was told by someone higher up that public employees are not supposed to accept donations.
An acquaintance of mine has a young daughter who just sold Girl Scout cookies at the UW athletic department and to Chris Petersen. Last Friday, she received a nice thank you note from Petersen. It was a good gesture.
It got me to thinking how about how a year and a half ago, Dave Hoffmann and I donated 130 copies of our book Husky Hitman to the UW football team. (We were going to donate 100 copies but they asked if we could donate 130 so the coaches and some administrators could have a copy).
To this day, neither Dave nor I have heard back from anyone at the UW about the donation, including Petersen. Dave and I didn't give the books with the expectation of getting anything in return, but we were still a bit surprised by the lack of courtesy.
Nothing more needs to be said after the bolded part
In other words, we weren't looking for favors or to be fawned over.
In other words, you weren't looking for something but you make a comment suggesting that you're butthurt about not getting something ... and in particular comparing whether you get a note of thanks in the same breadth as a 7 year old girl.
Quite frankly Derek, you are a world class donkey.
In my opinion, you are not good for the University of Washington. You aren't helping the program. You aren't helping the University. You are entirely self-serving and a pompous, egotistical jerk.

You should make a big stink about this. Might be able to finagle a set of tit pics out of her that your loyal readers have been clamoring for.

I doubt they even made it to anyone's hands.

Mods?
Someone probably should have thanked you and Dave, especially since they asked for additional donations. Which is strange that they would, but OK!
On the other hand, you seem bitter, which is understandable. But I doubt there was malicious intent on the part of Petersen
