The classrooms have a nice feel about them that is at once open and intimate and that takes full advantage of the lovely setting. In particular, the adjoining student research and microscopy areas comprise an excellent teaching resource that cannot help but stimulate and support student-initiated explorations of all kinds.”

The presence on campus of the Curtis L. Ivey Science Center, home of the Class of 1954 classroom, was a highlight. The Reunion tent on the quad was the venue for a number of events throughout the sunny weekend, including the Saturday picnic.

Lethbridge Lodge, erected on this site in 1998, is the fourth iteration of this building.

A MESSAGE FROM DONALD A. HASSELTINE, Vice President for Advancement

Dear Friends,

I was re-reading The Little Prince this summer and took time to reflect on its profound message of how love makes the ordinary special. Over the years, your caring and support have transformed Colby-Sawyer into an extraordinary college. In fact, our programs, facilities and the quality of our students’ educational experience have never been better. The individuals, families and organizations listed in the Annual Report of Donors are playing a remarkable role in Colby-Sawyer’s success, and we are grateful to each and every one.

In this report, donors are listed among many categories of giving, which recognize their capital, endowed, Annual Fund and deferred gifts. Most of you have chosen to make your gift through the Annual Fund, the most immediate way to invest in the college’s current operations. The Annual Fund fuels our academic enterprise with funding for scholarships, campus maintenance and improvements, faculty development, student programs and information systems, to name just a few areas. As the college transitions out of the capital campaign, the Board of Trustees and the president have designated the Annual Fund as the most important way each of us can contribute to the college’s well-being in the years ahead.

Deferred gifts are those the college receives after a donor’s death. Bequests, gift annuities and charitable remainder trusts (CRTs) are some common ways people make deferred gifts, which they can designate for their program of choice. This past year Colby-Sawyer College received 15 new deferred gifts for $3,347,215. Capital gifts, used primarily for construction or renovation projects, receive a good deal of attention because they often lead to visible improvements on campus. Endowment gifts, on the other hand, create a permanent income stream to the college. Endowment gifts can also be restricted for just about any purpose, such as for the Annual Fund, scholarships or deferred maintenance. We were fortunate in the past year to receive 94 capital gifts totaling more than $1,684,263, and 61 endowment gifts totaling $395,611. All gifts, regardless of size or kind, contribute to the college’s success now and in the future.

I’d like to recognize two special groups of donors for their gifts this past year. First, thank you to the class of 1954 for your tremendous support of the Annual Fund, as well as for your contributions to the Curtis L. Ivey Science Center, where a classroom has been dedicated in your honor. Secondly, I’d like to express our deep appreciation to all of you who have met the Rooke Challenge, which continues through December 31, 2004. Many donors actually increased their support to ensure that the college would benefit from the Rooke Challenge’s matching funds! Our Reunion Giving Program and other special giving opportunities such as the Rooke Challenge enable alumni and friends to make a substantial difference to the college.

On behalf of the administration, faculty, staff and students of Colby-Sawyer, I thank you for your contributions. We are deeply grateful to all of you who view Colby-Sawyer as one of those special places worthy of your love and support.

In appreciation, A NNUAL

Ensuring the college’s financial vitality through more effective fund raising is one of the goals of the college’s strategic plan, and the Annual Fund has emerged as the college’s highest fund-raising priority. Since the college has a relatively small endowment, the Annual Fund represents our key competitive advantage and helps to bridge the gap between the comprehensive fee and the college’s expenditures for each student. In addition to scholarships, Annual Fund gifts support academic programs, advances in technology, facility enhancement, library acquisitions, student programs and athletics.

In recent years, Colby-Sawyer College has strengthened its position within the higher education community by striving for excellence and cohesion in its academic and cocurricular programs. Annual Fund gifts inspire the faculty, staff and students to do their best work. We hope you will find a way to inspire us again this year!
