THE CAMPAIGN FOR MILLIGAN COLLEGE

Approaching her 150th anniversary, Milligan College has a time-honored history of rigorous academics and unwavering Christian commitment.

The purpose of Forward Ever: The Campaign for Milligan College is to enrich the student experience at Milligan College by improving the quality and efficiency of campus facilities, providing essential scholarship support and increasing the endowment so that the college’s financial future will be even more secure.

Forward Ever seeks to honor Milligan’s heritage by preparing for the future. Through the generosity of friends who have made early commitments and gifts to the campaign, we have secured over $17 million toward our goal of $25 million. Accomplishing three important initiatives over the next two years will deeply enrich the Milligan student experience as the college celebrates its rich heritage and prepares to step confidently into its next century and a half. Please consider how you can help us accomplish these very important goals!

$16.5 million	THE INITIATIVE FOR SCHOLARSHIP As part of its mission, Milligan seeks to provide students with opportunities for scholarly pursuit. Building on a track record of solid academic achievement, this initiative seeks to meet the scholarship needs of both current and future students. Funding priorities include dramatic improvements to the P.H. Welshimer Memorial Library, creating a more environmentally friendly space for study and fellowship. We must also continue to meet our Annual Scholarship Fund goals, build endowment and provide funds for new academic programs and classroom facility improvements.
$5 million	THE INITIATIVE FOR COMMUNITY As part of its mission, Milligan seeks to model responsible membership in a community. Recognizing the significance of the Milligan community to students, this initiative seeks to improve those facilities central to accommodating and encouraging community. Funding priorities include improvements to the McCormick Dining Hall (completed Summer 2007), modernization of Webb Hall, a redesigned campus entrance (completed Spring 2008) and ongoing campus infrastructure improvements.
$3.5 million	THE INITIATIVE FOR WELLNESS As part of its mission, Milligan seeks to encourage participation in the activities of a healthy lifestyle. Milligan has long recognized the importance of serving students in a holistic manner. Realizing that healthy students are better prepared for life and learning, the initiative for wellness seeks to provide facilities that encourage and enable students to pursue healthy activities and a lifelong commitment to wellness. Funding priorities include the construction of the Gilliam Wellness Center, a LEED* Certified center for health and fitness, construction of a tennis clubhouse, upgrades to Steve Lacy Fieldhouse and continued improvements to athletic fields.
