There's Still Time to Send Your Gift
The Educational Foundation is making a list and checking it twice. Alumni and friends can make a charitable donation prior to December 31, which will allow you to receive end of year tax deduction benefits.

Peace on Earth and Goodwill to All Alumni 
This holiday season we would like to share two inspiring stories of our graduates offering peace and hope in their communities. Khaled Alkurdi '15 and Denise King '83 are using their talents to try and make the world a better place in response to current events.
