Alumni Perspectives

“Good friends, the background to build a good career — how can you not say thank you for those gifts? So each year I prepare my thank you for McDaniel. Some part of that is the time I donate but another part is in the form of a check. The time portion I donate gives back to current issues, but the check provides McDaniel the opportunity to give another gift to a student.”

Debi Lanius Cameron '75, 2018 Alumna of the Year
