Dear «Primary_Salutation»

Greetings from Bard Graduate Center!

This month, as we celebrate the newest BGC graduates (15 MA and 5 PhD degree recipients) we also celebrate all of you – our recent alumni who are making your mark in the art world in large part because of your time at BGC.

As we continue to celebrate 25 years of BGC, we also reflect on our vision for its future. To ensure that economic circumstances are not an obstacle to anyone pursuing a degree at BGC, we are expanding our ongoing efforts to increase tuition assistance. Your research is another critical component of our future, which is why this summer we are launching an initiative to digitize all the qualifying papers, theses, and dissertations in our collection. By digitizing them, they can be stored safely for research well into the future.

Today, we acknowledge that BGC’s future depends on your support. For our most recent alumni, we ask that you consider making a $25 contribution or any amount that feels right to you. As an added incentive, a board member has agreed to offer BGC alumni a generous challenge grant — for every dollar contributed by you and your classmates between now and June 30, 2019, he will contribute three dollars, up to $10,000. Your $25 gift will generate an additional $75 contribution! Support the future of BGC today by making an online donation here.

On behalf of Susan and everyone here at BGC, I want to thank you in advance for your generosity this year.

With best wishes,

Benjamin Krevolin
Chief Advancement Officer
