A small but generous group of alumni has posed an Alumni Fund challenge to the rest of the alumni body that could increase the fund's total by as much as $250,000 this fiscal year. The group pledges to match, dollar for dollar, the amount of any gift from an alum who did not make a gift last year and, for repeat donors, to match the amount of any increase in gift size over last year’s gift. This is a great opportunity to support financial aid, the faculty, athletics, and student programs, and it’s a generous gesture by the sponsors to inspire fellow alums to help the College meet this year’s campaign goals.

Did a Colby professor inspire you, push you to accomplish more than you
thought you could, or open the world to you intellectually? Have you
ever wondered how to let that professor know how much you appreciated
his or her efforts?
