About

Between 1975 and 2011, sophomores, juniors, and seniors at Simon’s Rock made a home in the modular, townhouse-style apartments on campus that came to be known as “the Mods.”

The Mods were an essential part of the Simon's Rock experience. In fact, Simon's Rock President Baird Whitlock sought to design the Mods in a way that would foster lasting friendships and a deeper sense of connection throughout the campus community.

Vacant since 2012, the Mods, currently in disrepair, are in need of a full-scale renovation.

Simon’s Rock is growing. The Mods, which were so important to so many of us, are spaces where students are empowered to build their own communities. We need to bring them back.

Our goal is to involve 250 donors in this ReMODel drive. Provided that we reach this goal, a generous challenge donor will contribute a $100 matching gift for each of these 250 donations. Please help!

Are you interested in discussing a principal contribution or leading a group gift effort to name a Mod unit, building, outdoor commons, or the village? Please contact Rich Montone at rmontone@simons-rock.edu.

Incentives

The Mods kitchen sink t-shirt: announce to the world that your contribution (may have) bought the kitchen sink, around which Rocker memories will be made forever -- or at least for decades to come. (If donating $100 or more, please specify your size preference.)

Donate $100

Engrave a brick that will be used to build an outdoor commons in the heart of the Mods village. Display your name to show community support for the Mods. Use your brick to honor or remember a family member, friend, or beloved professor. Leave an indelible quote for other Rockers to find. There are many possibilities!

Donate $300

Sponsor furnishings for a mod room. All furnishing sponsors will have their names displayed inside the Mod they helped to re-create and will receive a commemorative Mods keepsake gift, appropriate for displaying in your home, studio, or office!
