People

This will take all of us, working together.

The From Here campaign has the opportunity to benefit our community for generations to come. But it will take thousands of us to reach our goals—donors, volunteers, event hosts, staff, student workers, and our loyal alumni and parents all around the world.

Our goal is to have 85 percent of our alumni engage with the College over the course of this campaign by making an annual fund gift, volunteering, or registering for an event.
