“Financial aid was important back when I was a student, now I think it’s imperative. President Cole has told us that what the sticker price is and what the average student here pays are two different numbers because there is help. And we wanted to be a part of that help.”

“The impact I’d like to make on Allegheny is that it continues to thrive. This is an institution that has been here for centuries, and it is my hope that it will continue to be. It has such a large impact on students, but also the communities that surround it. And my hope is that our continued involvement as alumni really allows this place to just continue to be the great place it is.”

“We support Allegheny because we loved our experience—the professors, friends, and unique mix of academic excellence and grounded ethos. We asked ourselves: “If not us, then who? If not now, then when?” These words are not unique to us, but they resonate deeply and capture the essence of why we are choosing this particular time and place to extend our support for the College and its path forward.”
