Colby-Sawyer College, a comprehensive college that integrates the liberal arts and sciences with professional preparation, is proud to announce the launch of its new capital campaign – The Power of Infinity. The official launch celebration will commence at 4 p.m. on Thursday, April 23, 2015 in the Ware Student Center.
The Power of Infinity capital campaign launch will include a conversation with Colby-Sawyer alumnus Ethan Casson '96, chief revenue officer for the San Francisco 49'ers, and President Thomas C. Galligan Jr., as well as reflections from alumni and trustees followed by formal remarks from President Galligan. The Power of Infinity campaign captures the Colby-Sawyer philosophy that education should go much further than the classroom and demonstrates the limitless power and benefits of working together as a community.
There are five primary areas of investment for The Power of Infinity campaign, including (1) health professions, (2) business, (3) the arts, (4) always learning and (5) sustainability. These priorities reinforce the Colby-Sawyer belief that a curriculum isn't just learned, it's lived. The capital campaign is a dedicated effort to bring in resources that will support these highest priorities of the Colby-Sawyer community.
The Power of Infinity campaign aims to raise $60 million, which will be allocated to scholarships, campus improvements, student research funds, faculty support and more. To learn more about the capital campaign, visit campaign.colby-sawyer.edu.
