Mind the Gap

What is Mind the Gap?This is the day when we acknowledge the fact that tuition dollars “run out” and donors step up to help fill the gap. Tuition only covers about 75% of the cost of your education. Last year over 4,000 alumni and parents made a gift to support your education. These gifts help support every student, program, and department on campus.This special day celebrates the generous donors who give money to the College to help make your education possible. Watch this video to learn more about Mind the Gap: 

 

When is it? Mind the Gap takes place in early March! Stay tuned for 2014 event details.

What’s going on that day? We will be giving away FREE Sesame Donuts and asking students to write a thank you note to LC donors. This is your chance to say a little “thank you” to the donors who support your LC experience while enjoying a sweet treat. During Mind the Gap 2013, we collected 750 thank you notes which will be distributed to alumni and parents in the coming months. We hope you will join us again next year!
