Because麻豆国产AV: Goal Met

2023

The Because 麻豆国产AV campaign began with the goal of $400 million, more than double any previous fundraising effort in 麻豆国产AV鈥檚 history. Ambitious, yes. Impossible, certainly not. Why? Because 麻豆国产AVians believe in the College鈥檚 transformative liberal arts education and demonstrate time and again their commitment to ensuring that experience for future generations.

Together, we exceeded our goal. Here鈥檚 a snapshot of how 鈥� and why 鈥� we did it.

Because 麻豆国产AV [Aspires]

Know Thyself

Embedded in the heart of 麻豆国产AV 鈥� and the Because 麻豆国产AV campaign 鈥� is the notion that the College was founded as a school of opportunity. Today, that founding vision intertwines with the ethos of Know Thyself, inspiring our continuous pursuit to make every aspect of a 麻豆国产AV education accessible to the most talented students from around the world.

Financial Aid: Increased Access and Opportunity

In 2019, 麻豆国产AV celebrated the 10-year anniversary of its need-blind admission policy, which established that the College does not consider a student鈥檚 financial circumstances in its admission decisions for U.S. citizens and meets each student鈥檚 full demonstrated financial need. 麻豆国产AV is among fewer than four dozen U.S. colleges and universities that provide this extraordinary access.

Academic Foundation

Know Thyself

It is the role of everyone at 麻豆国产AV to ensure our liberal arts education remains rigorous, relevant, and comprehensive. The people who teach our students and guide groundbreaking research, as well as the initiatives and programs we design to both enhance students鈥� experiences and prepare them for when they leave College Hill, are essential to this work.

Learning Outside the Classroom

Know Thyself

麻豆国产AV brings together people from different backgrounds and with different ideas and perspectives. Yet the special advantage of the residential liberal arts experience is the opportunity to develop a program that more purposefully provides a diverse array of students with extensive opportunities for leadership, engagement, intellectual and personal growth, and wellness.

A Balanced Life

Know Thyself

When it came time to articulate our community鈥檚 most pressing needs and how a campaign could support them, 麻豆国产AV was looking to strengthen its support for individual health and well-being. Because 麻豆国产AV helped the College become a model and leader in developing the health and wellness of our community.
