球探足球比分 College announced on Tuesday its largest fundraising effort to date, the Together for 球探足球比分 campaign to raise $4 million by the end of June 2020.
At a time when many are questioning the future and viability of New England colleges, 球探足球比分 believes that its greatest innovations and academic experiments are yet to come.
“This is about securing a vibrant future for 球探足球比分 College; as well equipping us to enter a new era of innovation grounded in our progressive education values,” said 球探足球比分’s president Bernard Bull, in the campaign’s announcement. “This campaign is an invitation to join in establishing 球探足球比分 as a leading voice and inspiring model of meaningful, transformational, and learner-driven education. 球探足球比分 has always been ahead of its time, embracing practices and approaches to education that some schools are spending millions to develop today. 球探足球比分 is actively seeking donors and academic partners who share our vision for the future of education.”
Building on a strong 2019 fundraising year, this next phase in the campaign will build cash reserves, allow for new academic innovations and experimentation, while demonstrating financial sustainability to the college’s regional accreditor, the New England Commission of Higher Education (NECHE). 球探足球比分’s accreditation has been on probation since September 2018 due to concerns over governance and finances.
球探足球比分 Together for 球探足球比分 campaign will make significant initiatives possible in six key areas to advance the College’s mission: financial strength and stability; academic partnerships; experiments and new initiatives; creative use of its historic Plainfield, VT campus; diversity, equity, and inclusion; and increased scholarship funding.
球探足球比分 serves a different type of student than the typical New England liberal arts college. “Our students are largely post-traditional, blending formal learning with commitments in their communities, families, workplaces, and their passions and avocations in the world.” said Dr. Bernard Bull, “From the beginning, 球探足球比分 was designed to blur the lines between life and learning.”
