  • $25 Million Gift Establishes New Center to Accelerate Student Creativity and Collaboration at the Claremont Colleges Claremont
    CONTACT: MARYLOU FERRY VICE PRESIDENT & CHIEF COMMUNICATIONS OFFICER (909) 607-0283 $25 MILLION GIFT ESTABLISHES NEW CENTER TO ACCELERATE STUDENT CREATIVITY AND COLLABORATION AT THE CLAREMONT COLLEGES CLAREMONT, California (Sept. 10, 2015) -- The presidents of Pomona College, Scripps College, Claremont McKenna College, Harvey Mudd College and Pitzer College (known collectively as the 5Cs) today announced the establishment of the Rick and Susan Sontag Center for Collaborative Creativity. The center’s purpose is to accelerate the creative development of students and to equip them to work collaboratively to address the future’s most ambiguous problems and complex challenges. A landmark $25 million gift from Rick Sontag, a 1964 graduate of Harvey Mudd College, and his wife, Susan Sontag, a 1964 graduate of Pomona College, will provide the new center with both operating expenses for its early years and endowment support to ensure its longevity, benefiting all undergraduate students and faculty of The Claremont Colleges. “The challenges we face today call for audacious thinkers and doers who can work collaboratively and creatively across disciplines,” explained Rick Sontag. “The center will encourage students to navigate change, pull together knowledge from a vast range of sources and have meaningful impact on the most difficult problems with no clear solutions.” A focus on undergraduate education and an emphasis on the creative power of collaboration will distinguish the Sontag Center. As part of an exceptional consortium within higher education, the 5Cs are uniquely poised to support the center’s goals. The opening of the new center is the culmination of a yearlong effort involving students, faculty and staff of the 5Cs in exploring new approaches to creative collaboration.
