Bicentennial Campaign Newsletter

2010 - A quarterly report on the progress of The Bicentennial Campaign: Every few months, we will bring you news of the people and projects that are helping Lawrenceville realize its promising future. The Bicentennial Campaign is driven by five major priorities: Faculty Support; Financial Aid; Humanities and the Arts; Science, Math and Technology; and Student Life and Leadership. Each issue of 2010 will take a closer look at one of these priorities. Each quarter, we will also consider the parallels between Lawrentians past and present and the ways in which Lawrenceville’s proud traditions are reflected in the promise of its future.
