Graduates Of the Last Decade (GOLD)

Classes from 2000 through 2008 are vying for this UMW award based on each class's participation rate for gifts made from July 1, 2008, to June 30, 2009.

The winning class will be announced during Homecoming celebration in October 2009 and will have its name and participation rate permanently engraved on the GOLD Award on display in the Jepson Alumni Executive Center.

The GOLD award is modeled after the Mary Washington spirit rock and was custom-designed by UMW student Weston Betts '08.

A volunteer GOLD chair from each class will be leading the rush. Keep checking back for more information and updates as they become available.

Regardless of the size, EACH GIFT COUNTS toward the class participation rate. Make your GOLD Rush gift today!
