Welcome to our Senior Campaign!
Why Give?
We all know it’s an exciting time for Manning College of Information and Computer Sciences (CICS), with its recent growth in students and faculty—as well as the new building taking shape!
It's hard to believe that graduation is almost here, but the networks and friendships we have established during our time here have undoubtedly set the stage for success once we leave campus.
By donating a minimum of $5 to the 2024 CICS Senior Class Gift Campaign, you will be giving back to our community and college that has given so much to us. And with your gift, you’ll get a special cord to wear when you cross the stage at graduation! Your participation will mark your first step as a proud alumnus. Let’s show the commitment our class has to the CICS community and Computing for the Common Good—thanks for your support!
Our Goal
This year’s goal is 75 gifts by the 2024 CICS Senior Class!
Our Class Gift
When we meet our participation goal, our success will be marked with an apple tree that will be placed next to our new building with a dedication plaque to the Class of 2024! The apple tree, which served as the inspiration for the college's binary tree design, will replace ones that were removed from the front of the CS Building during construction.
Graduation cords can be picked up at:
· The Commencement Fair on Wednesday, May 8 from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. at the Campus Center Auditorium
· The Senior Gift tabling events May 9 and 10 from 12 - 3 p.m. at the LGRC Lowrise lobby
· By contacting Corinne at cbriggs@uma-foundation.org
All gifts of $20.24 will earn a spin on the prize wheel when you pick up your graduation cord!
