Same Spirit. New Determination.
Goucher’s [UNDAUNTED]TM campaign continues to spark moments that unlock ideas, breed creativity, and invigorate learning. Moments that encourage students to venture outside the familiar and comfortable. Moments that change everything.
Priorities
Our campaign’s core parts are all in sync–supporting and reinforcing each other and the college. More importantly, the remaining priorities shift the focus from constructing buildings to what matters most: our people and the moments of discovery that happen within those buildings.
Science Innovation Center
An annex to the Hoffberger Science Building, the Science Innovation Center will create an exciting environment for interdisciplinary learning, provide our students with state-of-the-art resources, and further our legacy as leaders in the sciences.
Professorships
Professorships are the exemplar of academic achievement and legacy. For Goucher College, they signal a rigorous pursuit of excellence and are emblematic of a visionary sustainability that will allow our institution and community to thrive.
Scholarships
Scholarships provide a direct and meaningful source of support to our students. By easing financial pressures, scholarships allow recipients to embrace academic discovery and pursue their dreams fully.
Completed Projects
Since publicly launching our $100 million comprehensive campaign in 2018, we have successfully moved Froelicher Hall and built state-of-the-art facilities like the First-Year Village, Mary Fisher Dining Center, and the Evelyn Dyke Schroedl ’62 Tennis Center. And, we have sparked a multitude of moments in the process, moments like shared late-night meals in the dining room, victory on the tennis court, and the first timid night at college with a new roommate. These are the buildings that are already inspiring new beginnings and unlocking new ideas.
