Students Hang Out in Front of Chambers

Ways to Give

In giving to ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø, you join a long and distinguished list of alumni, parents and friends whose financial support helps to sustain our national reputation for leadership and achievement in liberal arts education.

The Fund for ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø

The Fund for ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø supports every student, faculty member and program on campus. Tuition, endowment earnings and other revenue do not cover the full cost of a ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø education. Current-use support through The Fund for ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø meets this gap, and ensures the continued excellence and affordability of a ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø education.

ÌÒñ«ÉçÇø is a national leader in alumni participation. Our community of philanthropy distinguishes us within the higher education community, inspires investment from foundations, grants and individuals, and makes us better than we’d be otherwise.

Areas of Support

Each year, DAF gifts provide incremental funding toward the athletic department’s budget in the areas of scholarships, recruiting, facility upgrades and team travel.
