For two hundred years, our University has stood as a testament to faith, learning, and service — a vision planted by our founders and nurtured by generations of believers who answered the call to build something lasting.This Founders Week, as we celebrate our 200th anniversary, we invite you to join us for a special 1826 Minutes of Giving to honor those who came before us and to invest in those who will rise after us.
Through the decades, the generosity of our benefactors, alumni, and friends has shaped the student experience. Campus traditions like Follies, Swerve, Spring Fever Week, and Welcome Week nurture the heart for faith and service that defines our community and empowers students to rise to every challenge.
Now, as we Rise to 200, we are dedicated to building upon that foundation of faith and generosity so that our students can continue to learn, lead, and serve.
Every gift made during this Rise to 200 challenge directly supports our students and their campus organizations, empowering them to create lasting memories, deepen their faith, and live out the MC’s mission in meaningful ways.
As we reflect on two centuries of God’s faithfulness, we give thanks for the countless individuals who believed in this place and its purpose. Their legacy lives on, — and today, we invite you to be part of writing the next chapter.
Let’s Rise to 200 — celebrating where we’ve been, and faithfully stepping into what’s ahead.
