September 13, 2009, The Times-Picayune — Tulane raised $730.6 million in its most recent fundraising drive, which paid for, among other things, construction of a residence hall, photographed in March 2005.

Tulane University plans to launch a campaign to raise more than $1 billion, the biggest amount in the school's 175-year history, President Scott Cowen said Friday.
