LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Alumni/ae, Parents, and Friends: It is my hope that you will take a moment to look through the list of names presented here—the individuals and institutions whose generosity makes Bard’s ambitious goals possible. Together they have raised over $38 million for the College. All of us here at Bard are extremely grateful. Three years ago, we launched the 150th Anniversary Campaign. To date, we have met 71 percent of our goal, raising $420,235,676. Twenty-three percent of this is in irrevocable testamentary gifts. Every gift in this report is a part of that effort. I am certain that we will reach our goal of $594 million—but in order to do so every gift is needed, no matter its size. Bard has never had the privilege of a significant endowment, but we operate on a balanced budget, thanks to the trustees, alumni/ae, parents, friends, students, staff, and faculty who give each year. Our priority now is support for the ongoing work of the College during the next five years. The College continues its role as an innovator both in the United States and around the world. Bard’s alumni/ae illustrate the potential of a liberal arts education. In 2013, donor philanthropy helped us award financial aid to 65 percent of all students, which totals more than $35 million in annual scholarships. Each and every one of you can be proud of the students we support. Thanks to our donors, solar panels are being installed on campus that will generate enough kilowatt-hours to power the electricity usage of 30 average American households for a year. Students taking an Environmental and Urban Studies Program class are working with an architect, contractors, and campus faculty and staff to design and build a grant-funded digital media studio using a repurposed shipping container. The Bard College Farm, behind Ward Manor, organized by students, is flourishing, and students and alumni/ae are pursuing, as a group, the study of drones—the outgrowth of a Senior Project from the Class of 2013. On behalf of all of my colleagues at the College, I want to thank the donors listed here for their support. I also want to extend my appreciation to the many alumni/ae, parents, and friends whose time, wisdom, and devotion to Bard make the College stronger. Their combined generosity permits the College to be a private institution acting in the public interest, not only through the Annandale campus, but also through the Bard High School Early Colleges, the Bard Prison Initiative, the College’s international programs, and the College’s programs in the arts.
