The Colgate Fund is an expression of loyalty, made by alumni, parents, students, and friends. It allows the university to address its most pressing needs and respond to new opportunities, underwriting a multiplicity of excellence. Every gift of any size makes a difference.
Colgate's beauty is a point of distinction. Members of the Colgate community have a rare opportunity to help steward the university's landscape by purchasing and naming one of 200 Bicentennial trees to be planted on Colgate's upper campus in the months to come.
Colgate’s future as a leading American institution depends on its ability to attract and admit outstanding students — regardless of economic need. When it comes to expanding access for tomorrow's undergraduates, there is no time like the present.
This book celebrates the beauty and history of Colgate University's campus over 200 years through 200 images, both archival and contemporary. All profits from sales of this Bicentennial publication will support financial aid for Colgate students.
