Dear Members of the Hamilton Community,
The Board of Trustees met Friday, November 30 in New York City in conjunction with the 21st Annual 1812 Leadership Circle Weekend and the Because Hamilton Campaign launch. More than 1000 alumni, parents, and friends of the College participated in the weekend's events, which included social gatherings, seminars, and the Because Hamilton Dance Party with Trustee David Solomon performing as DJ DSol. Photos and videos of the events, including our mascot Alex dancing up a storm, can be found on the Because Hamilton website.
At the Board meeting on Friday, Karen Leach, Vice President for Finance and Administration, led a discussion of the College's finances, capital priorities, and strategic initiatives. As always, the College must balance rising costs, market uncertainties, and growing needs with our educational goals.
That evening we launched the most ambitious fundraising campaign in Hamilton history. Our goal is to raise $400 million for financial aid, student life, digital learning, and other College priorities. For more information on our campaign priorities, please visit our campaign website.
The next meeting of the Board will take place on campus on March 2.
I wish you every success in the final week of the semester and a relaxing winter break.
All best,
David
