In a few weeks, the members of Bennington’s next graduating class will join the College’s worldwide community of innovative alumni, who have been breaking new ground in virtually every field since 1932.
Each year, the graduating class makes a gift to the College to commemorate their time at Bennington and their passage into the alumni body. This year, the Class of 2013 has set an ambitious goal of $13,000, which will support two scholarships for members of the class of 2017.
As of April 25, 2013, they have raised more than $9,000—they invite you to join them by making a gift today to the Senior Class Gift.
