Raising the Bar Campaign 2011
For many recent graduates, this is your first assignment as alumni. We are looking for 246 members of the classes of 2001-2010. Will you join us?
What is Raising the Bar?
Since 2000, each class entering Moritz has raised the bar when it comes to credentials, leadership, and talent. Yours have been the best classes to ever walk through Drinko Hall.
And, you are already raising the bar as alumni. Your classmates have volunteered to coach and judge moot court teams, helped career services with leads and mock interviews, organized reunions, and some have supported the College financially. We need your continued leadership.
Who should contribute?
We are asking you – young alumni – to lead the charge in supporting the College. Currently, 5 percent of our recent alumni give to the College. Will you help us raise the bar to 10 percent? We are looking for 246 members of the classes of 2001-2010 to renew your support or to step forward for the first time, to become young alumni leaders, and give to the College.
It is not about the size of the gift; it is about giving back to your Moritz Community. Collectively, your gifts will substantially benefit our students through activities that were important to you, like law journal, moot court, career services, mentoring, and the clinical programs.
