Introduction

In October 2013, Creating Our Future: The Campaign for Skidmore was formally approved . At that moment, President Philip Glotzbach, Marie Glotzbach, and Skidmore’s Board of Trustees — along with Campaign volunteer leaders, alumni, parents, friends, faculty, staff, and students — set out to reach an ambitious goal of $200 million to provide for students and help them achieve lives of meaning and purpose, capitalize on the College’s incredible momentum, and continue building resources for the future . Following the arrival of President Marc C . Conner and Barbara Reyes-Conner on July 1, 2020, we announced on December 31, 2020, that 27,193 donors amazed us all with a record-setting total of $229 .4 million!
