CREATE THE COVETED DEGREE OF THE FUTURE.
New resources
focused on signature programs in energy, the environment and
entrepreneurship will equip faculty and students to take on some
of the most pressing issues facing our nation and world. Even more,
experiential learning through the new Center for Enhanced Academic
Experiences will ensure that all students combine theory with
practice in service to careers of significance and lives of meaning.
FUEL A NEW GENERATION OF WARRIORS.
Providing access to
a premier education for talented students across the country and
around the world is at the heart of Lycoming’s mission. Scholarships
and financial aid help ensure that all students of promise can receive
an education at a competitive price, unsaddled with extraordinary
debt. This priority will build on that enduring legacy through new
endowed scholarships.
TRANSFORM OUR CAMPUS.
We can become one of the great liberal
arts colleges of the 21st century, but our campus must reflect that
greatness. A new arrival sequence to the College envisions a public-
private partnership in the construction of a retail and residential
building on the perimeter of the campus, and a Gateway Building that
will house the Center for Enhanced Academic Experiences and the
Outdoor Leadership and Education program, as well as admissions,
alumni and development offices.
LEVERAGE OUR COLLECTIVE STRENGTH.
Lycoming has been an
excellent steward of its resources. This is our moment to bring new
and nimble financial power to the College through the Lycoming
Fund. The ultimate in crowdfunding, it provides a direct and
immediate way for donors to leverage their gifts by targeting the
students and programs that will benefit most.
n Oct. 1, President Kent Trachte announced
the Campaign for a Greater Lycoming. With
a goal to secure $65 million by June 30, 2019 — $45.5
million in gifts have already been received — it is the
most ambitious campaign in the College’s history.
The Campaign will not simply raise critical
resources in service to a premier education in the
liberal arts, it will raise the level of institutional
ambition, reputation and belief in what is possible.
Our college is on an upward ascent. We embrace
challenges, dream big and act boldly.
These overarching objectives are woven in to both
our history and our future as we collectively work to
be recognized as one of the best liberal arts colleges
of the 21st century. We will harness our strengths
and invest in educational opportunities that are
not simply incremental, but
transformational.
By Chip Edmonds ’98
Now is the time to be
inspired. Now is the
time to acknowledge
the potential our
College has to be even
Greater. We came to
Lycoming because
we wanted to make
our mark on this great place. We have an
opportunity to make our mark once again.
Let’s not only Dare to Dream, but together
Dare to Do what we know is possible.
FOUR CAMPAIGN PRIORITIES HAVE BEEN
ESTABLISHED AND THEY WILL:
BUILDING A GREATER LYCOMING
