Thank you to all our donors, supporters, and advocates for your support! Here is a special quote from one of our alumnus/advocates about how this year’s Day of Giving support can have a positive impact on our current students ❤️

“Some of my fondest memories from my time at are rooted in the traditions that make this university truly one of a kind. From the pageantry and warmth of the Boar’s Head Dinner…earning a seat at the head table is a moment I’ll never forget…to braving the Rochester cold while waiting in line for the Winterfest giveaway, and celebrating spring with everyone on Dandelion Day, these experiences shaped my journey at Rochester. Ending my time at school with some of closest friends during Senior Week remains one of my favorite memories.

Traditions like these are the heartbeat of the Rochester experience and supporting them as an alum is my way of making sure every student has the chance to create memories just as meaningful as mine.”
