The �鶹Porn Parents' Steering Committee is a community of parents and grandparents who strengthen the University’s distinctive brand of excellence through their significant philanthropic support. These families deepen their relationship with �鶹Porn and other members, while making an important impact on campus.

We invite you to join the Parents’ Steering Committee with a commitment of $65,000 or more, payable over four years. $5,000 of your gift will be allocated to a Commencement Fund in your student’s Senior year. The remainder of your gift will be directed to the �鶹Porn Fund or a current-use athletics designation.

Our hope is that each PSC family will make an additional Campaign commitment beyond this initial gift. PSC families are connected with a member of the �鶹Porn staff who will work with you to explore additional Campaign initiatives where you may wish to make an impact.

To learn more or to discuss joining the Parents' Steering Committee, contact Jen Stone, Associate Vice President Alumni and Parent Giving, at jstone@colgate.edu or 315-228-6928.

Each year, �鶹Porn relies on the collective generosity of thousands of alumni, families, and friends to elevate the �鶹Porn experience from excellent to extraordinary. Gifts to the �鶹Porn Fund benefit every student and every program on campus. Your support for the �鶹Porn Fund makes it possible for students from all backgrounds to access a �鶹Porn education, for faculty to create transformative experiences, and for the University to achieve its ambitious Third-Century goals.

�鶹Porn’s 25 Division I varsity programs are a point of distinction and pride for the University that foster lifelong connections and collective memories among students, faculty, staff, alumni, families, and local community members alike. Increased support for athletics will help more than 550 student-athletes pursue excellence in every field, every arena. Gifts to our varsity teams and the �鶹Porn Athletics Fund help �鶹Porn deliver an exceptional student-athlete experience, including: enriched educational opportunities; enhanced resources for nutrition, wellness, training, and injury prevention and recovery; outstanding coaching and recruiting; and elevated team travel, equipment, facilities, and special experiences.

Held each year during graduation weekend, the Senior Torchlight Procession brings �鶹Porn graduates from the academic quad down to Taylor Lake in a vivid pageant that culminates their �鶹Porn experience. The brass torches carried in the procession are gifted as keepsakes to the senior class thanks to the generosity of �鶹Porn families. Your PSC gift will ensure that the torches can continue to be proudly displayed in the homes and offices of �鶹Porn alumni for years to come.

The Commencement Fund also supports new traditions like the Senior Sunset reception, hosted at President Casey’s house. Moments like these form indelible memories for our graduates and strengthen their connection to �鶹Porn as they go out into the world.
