Senior Class Challenge 2010
The Senior Class Challenge is an annual giving program developed to encourage participation and continue a tradition of philanthropy among our current students and future alumni. As a senior, this is your opportunity to join classmates in leaving a lasting legacy at Emerson by giving a gift to your school. If you would like to know more please contact Katie-Coral Horton, the Class Challenge Chair, at katie_coral_horton@emerson.edu.“There are certain things that are fundamental to human fulfillment. The essence of these needs is captured in the phrase ‘to live, to love, to learn, to leave a legacy’.” – Stephen Covey
