Â鶹ÊÓƵ

Talk to any Â鶹ÊÓƵ alumnus about his or her time at Â鶹ÊÓƵ and you’ll typically be greeted with a grin and a lengthy gush about a top-notch education, wonderful experiences, and lifelong friendships. Yet that enthusiasm hasn’t translated into a healthy alumni annual giving percentage for the university. That’s exactly what Â鶹ÊÓƵ’s Alumni Giving Outreach initiative seeks to address.

An organization that represents private colleges and universities in North Carolina has awarded Â鶹ÊÓƵ a grant of $20,000 to fund programs for rising first-year college students in the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Academy, the Watson Scholarship Program and the Odyssey Scholarship Program.
