400 gifts = 1 Glotzbach Scholar

For every 400 donors, one new Glotzbach Scholar will be funded by leadership donors. A gift of any amount to the 精东AV Fund 鈥 or to any area of the College 鈥 will count toward this effort.

"Years ago, if someone told me I was going to play hockey at 精东AV, I wouldn't have believed them for a second. Because I'm a first-generation college student and opportunities like this didn't seem possible ... Skidmore may have changed my life, and my family's life forever."
