ADVANCEMENT UPDATES

Give Day 2019: A ‘Super’ Success Superheroes were everywhere on campus and on social media April 10, when the UC community came together to celebrate inspiring people and raise funds to support the College. A total of 336 donors contributed more than $72,000 during the 24-hour event, and social media was buzzing with touching tales from alumni, students, faculty, and staff about the people who made a difference in their lives at UC. Among the superheroes: Director of Alumni and Parent Relations Mark Kovacs and Geology Professor Sharon Kanfoush (pictured).

“Mark believed in me and encouraged me through some really difficult times. I am grateful every day for the efforts he put in, and I know I was one of thousands of students who benefitted from his guidance.” —Natalie Haig ’02 “I have used what Dr. Kanfoush taught me each and every day in the classes I have taught over the past 13 years ... even her rock jokes.” —Kevin Ford G’07
