WHY I GIVE BACK… “As someone who cherishes my years at Assumption College, I see it as my duty to give back to the school that molded my young mind and launched me into the professional world on the right foot. All of us who value the great education we received, treasure the memories we made with our friends, and appreciate the personal growth we experienced while at Assumption should donate to the school we love so much. There are countless future Greyhounds waiting to take part in the Assumption College experience. We can help make that happen by giving back.” Max Ebacher ‘10 Worcester, MA

FACTS

For FY 2011, our class contributed $5,881. 7.9% (44 classmates) of the class contributed.

GOALS

Our goal for 2012 is to reach a 17% or more level of participation. We have a total of 561 classmates. To reach a 17% level of participation, we only need support from 95 classmates. Please try your best to participate. We as a class can keep our legacy strong. Even a small gift helps us to reach our FY ’12 goal for participation!

Benvenuti a Roma!

A new campus to be established in Rome was

announced on March 7. “The new campus will

enhance educational opportunities for

students; Italian capital will be used as a living

classroom.” Classes are to begin spring 2013!

Assumption Pride

Let’s increase class participation!

Please remember that it is not the size of your gift that matters – it is your participation and giving back to the college community that counts the most.

Give a gift in recognition of our class… How about $20.10?!?

The academic profile of incoming students has improved. The average high school GPA has risen from 3.18 to 3.23. The acceptance rate has decreased from 79% to 75%.

Plan for the construction of new buildings and renovation of existing buildings is outlined in the Campus Master Plan.

Plan to hire more full-time coaches over a period of time in selected sports has been completed.

The campus is 100% wireless.

At the time of the Strategic Plan’s approval, the College’s endowment had grown to $75,196,071. With the economic downturn, the endowment declined to $62,729,684. At the end of the fiscal year on May 31, 2011, the College’s endowment had grown to $82,713,351 which represents an all-time high in the College’s history. This growth is due to the generous support of alumni and benefactors of the College.
