NOW'S THE DAY AND NOW'S THE HOUR!

Join us for our annual athletics fundraising campaign!

Dear Scots Family,

We are excited to continue Scots Wha Hae, our annual fall giving campaign dedicated to strengthening the future of Maryville College Athletics. Following the tremendous support of our inaugural campaign, which raised nearly $200,000, we are ready to build on that momentum and make an even greater impact this year. As part of this year’s campaign, we are also proud to introduce a new Athletics giving club—the Swordbearer Society.

Historically, Swordbearers were appointed by Scottish clan chiefs to wield heavy weaponry, lead charges, and take part in ceremonial traditions that inspired their fellow Scots and instilled a sense of pride and unity. The MC Swordbearer Society carries that spirit into the present, recognizing those who provide meaningful support for the future of Maryville College Athletics. Members will receive exclusive benefits based on their giving tier, and the first 100 donors who join the Society during this year’s Scots Wha Hae campaign will receive a College-branded hat featuring the Swordbearer crossed-swords logo on the back.

Whether you are an alum who remembers the pride of wearing the orange and garnet, a family member watching your student-athlete compete and grow, or a friend of Maryville College Athletics, your support makes a direct impact. We invite you to be part of the second year of Scots Wha Hae and help us build on the generosity and enthusiasm that made our inaugural campaign such a success.

As we enter this next chapter of Scots Wha Hae and launch the Swordbearer Society, we celebrate the community of alumni, families, friends, coaches, and supporters who continue to carry the Scots spirit onward and upward. 

Dr. Andrew Wu, Director of Athletics
