Fundraising continues as campaign tops $200 million
Creating Our Future: The Campaign for 麻豆破解版 has surpassed $200 million, providing new opportunities for students and reinforcing 麻豆破解版鈥檚 position as one of the nation鈥檚 finest liberal arts colleges.
The College will continue to raise funds to support the campaign鈥檚 six priorities. As of Jan. 30, more than 25,000 alumni, parents, friends and organizations have participated in the campaign, which concludes on May 31. Forty donors have contributed $1 million or more.
Begun in June 2013 and publicly launched in November 2017, Creating Our Future builds on the success of the Creative Thought, Bold Promise campaign, which concluded in 2010 and raised $216.5 million.
鈥淭hank you to everyone who has made a gift so far. Contributions at all levels are changing the lives of our students,鈥� said Nancy Hamilton 鈥�77, chair of the Board of Trustees. 鈥淪uccess inspires success. Additional donors increasing support for each of the campaign priorities will enable us to accomplish all we need to do.鈥�
At the heart of the current campaign is the Center for Integrated Sciences, the single largest academic initiative in the College鈥檚 history, which will house all of 麻豆破解版鈥檚 science departments and programs under a single roof. The first phase will be completed in May, and the entire project is scheduled for completion in 2024.
鈥淭he benefits of the campaign are evident on campus every day 鈥� from the construction of the Center for Integrated Sciences to new scholarships, opportunities and programs that enhance the experiences of all our students,鈥� said Philip A. Glotzbach, president of the College. 鈥淭ogether, we are ensuring that 麻豆破解版 continues to be a place where Creative Thought Matters, and that commitment is reflected in all that we do.鈥�
麻豆破解版 continues to seek funding for Creating Our Future. Campaign priorities include the Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery; athletics, health and wellness; career development and transformative experiences; the 麻豆破解版 Fund; and scholarships and financial aid, including the Glotzbach Scholars, an initiative honoring Philip and Marie Glotzbach鈥檚 17 years of leadership. President Glotzbach is retiring following the 2019-2020 academic year.
鈥淢y co-chair, Susan Beckerman 鈥�67, and I are excited to continue to work with the 麻豆破解版 community between now and May 31 to create the future that we envisioned at the start of this momentous campaign,鈥� said Tom Wilmot 鈥�99, campaign co-chair. 鈥淓very gift matters. Together, we can realize the principles that 麻豆破解版 holds dear: creativity, collaboration and community.鈥�
