What happens when visionary, dedicated people unite to make dreams come true for others?

Inspiration blooms. Talents develop. Lives change.
Five decades ago, a small group of people with a common goal joined together in a commitment to support the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ.
Today, our circle has expanded to more than 12,000 strong and is known as The President’s Circle. This powerful community is made up of a diverse mix of alumni, faculty, retirees, friends and fans.
No matter how you personally support the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ, we welcome you to The President’s Circle as an expression of our gratitude for giving a total of $2,000 or more annually.
