Ways to Give
In giving to 91¿ì²¥, 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 91¿ì²¥
The Fund for 91¿ì²¥ supports every student, faculty member and program on campus. Tuition, endowment earnings and other revenue do not cover the full cost of a 91¿ì²¥ education. Current-use support through The Fund for 91¿ì²¥ meets this gap, and ensures the continued excellence and affordability of a 91¿ì²¥ education.
91¿ì²¥ is a national leader in alumni participation. Our community of philanthropy distinguishes us within the higher education community, inspires investment from foundations, grants and individuals, and makes us better than we’d be otherwise.
