A new record has been set for a 50th Reunion Class Gift, a  milestone made possible thanks to the Class of 1975 and the extraordinary efforts of the Reunion Committee.

In total, the Class of 1975 raised $4,832,799!

Over the course of the Reunion campaign, Committee members devoted countless hours to reconnecting with classmates through phone calls, emails, texts, social media messages, and personal outreach. Their commitment extended beyond encouraging attendance at the 50th Reunion. They encouraged classmates to celebrate their Reunion with meaningful gifts in honor of their Knox education.  

As Committee member Nora Gubbins wrote, “All of the phone calls, emails, and letters made a difference. Such a good feeling knowing our efforts will help future Knox students. We all knew Knox was a special place, and our 50th Reunion reminded us again of how lucky we are to be part of the Knox College family.”

The Class of 1975 demonstrated the power of lifelong friendships, setting new standards for Reunion giving, and helping ensure a bold future for Knox Students.
