CAMPAIGN PRIORITIES
Learn about the impact of your support. Explore the campaign priorities below.
Center for Integrated Sciences
The single largest academic initiative in Skidmore’s history, CIS will be a hub that fosters unique interdisciplinary connections across the sciences, arts, humanities and social sciences. Thanks to your transformational gifts, the North Wing is now complete, and faculty and students are using new, state-of-the-art spaces for teaching and learning. Construction continues and is slated for completion in 2024.
Scholarships and Financial Aid
Scholarships and financial aid are key to providing talented students with the opportunity to realize their ambitions and fulfill their dreams regardless of economic circumstances. Thanks to your generosity, almost $30 million was raised to help meet the financial aid needs of Skidmore students. More than 40 new endowed funds were established to support these needs.
Skidmore Fund
Your gifts through the Skidmore Fund help students pursue their studies and discover their passions while fueling every part of campus with resources that prioritize students and faculty. The Skidmore Fund surpassed its $50 million campaign goal with the support of alumni, parents and friends. You created essential resources that are flexible, transformative and immediate.
The Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore
The Tang is a national model for museum learning, creativity and undergraduate exploration. You helped to build the Tang’s endowment, acquire works that support the exhibition program and expand teaching possibilities, support interdisciplinary exhibitions and programming, and provide support for current operations, exhibitions, programs and publications through the Friends of the Tang.
Athletics, Health and Wellness
With 19 varsity teams, dozens of club and intramural sports and significant wellness activity on campus, athletics and related programs are an integral piece of the Skidmore experience. Your support of nearly $5 million to the campaign will enhance the varsity athletics program and made construction of the Valentine Boathouse possible.
Career Development and Transformative Experiences
The nearly $5 million you contributed will enhance Career Development and Transformative Experiences for Skidmore students by funding career internships, student research and other experiential opportunities that help our students gain hands-on experience and skills and enhance post-graduation outcomes.
