Senior Legacy 2013

Last spring, the Class of 2013 voted on a fundraising project that would become the focus of the Class of 2013 Senior Legacy. Overwhelmingly, the Class of 2013 voted to raise money to create a new endowed fund in support of student financial aid. The decision to support the endowment rather than a capital project, says a lot about Thayer students in general, and the Class of 2013 in particular. The concept of endowment and the role it plays is often not fully understood by many adults, let alone by 17 year-old high school students. Furthermore, the fact that these same students can appreciate the important role financial aid plays in shaping the Thayer community - their community - evidences a maturity and sense of value that might not be expected in young adults of their age. The Class of 2013 Senior Legacy fundraising project will be chaired by Rita and Kevin Gill P '07, '08, '11, '13.
