Each year the students have the opportunity to vote on a class gift. In the fall of 2011, the students again voted for the class gift to go to the Students' Greatest Needs.
This funds such things as technology, lab supplies, internships & service-learning opportunities, improved spaces, research & travel opportunities and scholarship support.
For more information on the student gift, please contact Ellen Nesbitt at nesbitem@potsdam.edu.
Last year's student gift is going to The College's Greatest Needs, as selected and voted on by the student body. $18,000 was raised through various activities, events and phonathon.
The 2009-2010 student gift is going to the Students' Greatest Needs (selected and voted on by the student body). The total raised was $13,631.
