Sometimes I hear parents express appreciation. Not so long ago a student’s parents said to me, “We thought we were paying a lot of money in tuition so that our child could become a dentist. What we didn’t know was that tuition was only a portion of what it costs to sustain the School of Dentistry.” Their follow-up comment expressed true appreciation for what they had received.

The citizens of no other country in the world contribute as We recently established a planned giving recognition program much of their means to help others as do Americans. We are unique to the School of Dentistry. Named for the founding known the world over for our generosity. We respond almost Dean, Dr. M. Webster Prince, his society recognizes those who instinctively and certainly with extreme generosity to tragedy. have expressed their intentions to include the School of Dentistry That’s because giving is not just a rational response. At its through wills or trusts and those who have made life income gifts best, it is also an emotional response. Giving feeds the soul through a charitable gift annuity or charitable trust.
