Message On Advancement

As you will read in this issue of Whitman magazine, this year continues to illustrate an upward trajectory for the Whitman School through enhanced high-impact student programming, continued investments in experiential learning and global experiences and increased scholarship support for our students.

Whitman’s ability to offer cutting edges programming, champion our students at the levels they need to achieve their potential and remain competitive with other top-tier business schools is dependent on our ability to raise external funding. We simply could not provide these exceptional learning opportunities without the generosity of our alumni, parents and friends. Your gift to Whitman — large or small — impacts our students through signature experiences that they will take with them through the rest of their lives.

As we begin to close out the University’s Forever Orange fundraising campaign, this academic year is a critical one. We’ve certainly made steady progress towards our goals, but we still have a ways to go to achieve the aspirations that we have for our students and the Whitman School. With this in mind, we welcome and appreciate your continued support. We are grateful for the many ways in which you support the mission of the Whitman School and thank you in advance for your continued philanthropy and generosity. 

With warm regards,

Alex McKelvie

Interim Dean
