GOLD Founders Society

The GOLD (Graduates of the Last Decade) Founders Society offers younger alumni an opportunity to give back through incremental levels of support based on the number of years since graduation, allowing them to build to the $1,867 level in their first 10 years.

“I am so grateful to the members of our Founders Society. Through their generous financial commitment, our Founders Society members make dreams possible and demonstrate a love for our college that is inspiring. Our entire community benefits from the extraordinary commitment of our Founders Society.”
