Each year, the Senior Class is given the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on St. Lawrence through a class capstone gift. This fundraising effort allows classmates to both reflect on all that they’ve accomplished in their time on campus and to collectively recognize the shared experience over the past four years.

All gifts made by seniors and their families will be included in the Class of 2026 Capstone Gift total that will be celebrated at Commencement on May 17, 2026.

The Senior Class Council is asking we come together in support of future students through contributing to 2026 Senior Class Gift—The Class of 2026 Fund for Professional Pursuits—which will play a vital role in helping students explore career paths, secure internships, and prepare for professional life after St. Lawrence. Your generosity will directly enhance the guidance and opportunities available to all Saints.

As is tradition for the Senior Class Capstone Gift, each senior that personally makes a gift of $25 or more by May 15 will receive a Scarlet and Brown cord to wear at Commencement in recognition of your commitment to St. Lawrence.

Gifts to St. Lawrence can be made in honor of someone who has shaped your St. Lawrence experience, or in memory of someone who has passed away. As a Laurentian for Life, this is the first of many gifts your class will make to the University, so we appreciate you doing so in a manner that not only honors your time here, but that passes the St. Lawrence experience forward to future students.
