“The point is this class has been through a lot. I know I am getting tired of hearing that, but it is true. So to show our gratitude to the school that brought us all together in the first place, we set a goal of raising $100,000 for our Senior Parent Gift, and I am proud to announce that we are currently at $101,500 thanks to the over 80 families that have made gifts.” — S enior Class President Patrick Istzwan, University of Richmond
