Maybe, but I think these are just some losers that are just to dumb to realize that you just do not want to give them money. Most of the students that went to UC Davis did not beg for money to get their degree's. This constant begging really reflects poorly on the institution.
I just blocked the number. Easy. Done. These aren't poor students begging for money. It's the school asking for donations for their scholarship FOR students who can't afford it. It's a good cause. But, yes, the calls are annoying. Just be thankful you're not the one doing the calling.
