“The luncheon provided our students with the opportunity to meet the individuals and families investing not only in their college studies, but also in their potential and future,” says Tom DiLorenzo, Ph.D., dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. “I look forward to this event becoming a tradition for the college as it enables donors to see and appreciate the enduring value of their gifts.”
