In the long-term, constipation can cause dry, hard poo to collect in the rectum, called faecal impaction. Leakage of liquid stools is also possible, called faecal incontinence. Straining on the toilet and constipation can also lead to piles, another name for haemorrhoids.
An endowed professorship (or endowed chair) is a position permanently paid for with the revenue from an endowment fund specifically set up for that purpose. Typically, the position is designated to be in a certain department.
The gift of an endowed scholarship provides ESU with a permanent asset from which students can receive support. The gift becomes a fund managed by the ESU Foundation, whose investment objective is to achieve growth that is sufficient to preserve the value of the gift so the annual award is not diminished by inflation. The minimum principal balance required to establish an endowed scholarship is $25,000 as of August, 2014. Initial contributions may be made in lesser amounts with no awards made to students until the minimum of $25,000 is reached. Subsequent additions may be contributed at any time in any amount.
