Anyone who knows Williams knows that we measure our endowment in two ways. On the one hand are the goodwill, great ideas and constant effort of our alumni, parents and friends, who serve the College in countless ways. On the other is the generosity that has given Williams a degree of financial confidence and flexibility unknown to more than a handful of colleges in America.

With The Campaign for Williams, Ephs already have stepped up their contributions and commitment to both of these endowments. How do you thank the most energetic, open-minded and generous people out there? Perhaps the only way is to invite them back to the Purple Valley, with open arms, any time at all.
