Ways to Give
In giving to ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø, 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 ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø
The Fund for ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø supports every student, faculty member and program on campus. Tuition, endowment earnings and other revenue do not cover the full cost of a ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø education.

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