$1.4 Million Legacy Gift Strengthens University’s Long-Term Financial Health

This major contribution empowers the University to foster a new Laurentian era of access, innovation, and strength. An unrestricted gift provides the University with the flexibility to allocate funds to key strategic priorities. Whether it’s meeting the financial needs of middle- and lower-income students through endowed scholarships, raising the bar for liberal arts through innovative academic initiatives like the Center for the Environment, or creating state-of-the-art, welcoming facilities that make Laurentians proud to call St. Lawrence home—these funds can be directed toward permanent resources for the future.  

“In today’s competitive liberal arts admissions landscape, philanthropy enables St. Lawrence to continue attracting and retaining the best and brightest students,” says President Kate Morris. “Unrestricted gifts like this one are particularly vital to securing the long-term financial stability of the University.”
