First-Year Students

Recorded On: 05/24/2022

OVERVIEW

The experiences students have during their first year on campus can have a profound effect on their relationship with the school for the rest of their lives. When students are properly educated about advancement and the role that philanthropy plays in the life of the institution, they are more likely to have positive feelings, get involved, and ultimately to give back to the school after they graduate.
