“Through the support from Don and Ellie, our value proposition promises a rich combination of knowledge and experiences designed to help improve the quality of our students’ lives, as well as the lives of those they touch. We are increasing scholarship funds to ensure lower income students and their families have the opportunity to experience our value. We are investing in diversifying our faculty who will invent new methods for delivering on our promise. We are forging partner- ships to enable all students to gain work experience. We are developing new ways for students to experience cultures around the world.”
