Wells College Students
With announced closure, learn how EC can help.
Gifts to 埃尔迈拉大学 ensure excellent academic and co-curricular opportunities for generations of EC students.
From the moment they step foot on campus, our students set out on a journey to discover who they are and find their place in the world. Every day they soar higher, fostered by a culture of giving back to the College and the scholarship programs that have supported generations of Soaring Eagles.
There are many opportunities to benefit EC students and the College in meaningful ways. The Office of Institutional Advancement works with donors to find the opportunity that matches their desires and supports the programs and initiatives that benefit our campus and students.
My name is 凯特林·波特. I’m a Criminal Justice and Psychology double 主要, a Legal Studies Minor, and a member of the Tenacious Class of 2025.
I came to Elmira from the rural town of Eldred, 纽约, where I was valedictorian of my class and the only female wrestler at my high school. While my course of study and being able to wrestle were important aspects of choosing Elmira, the scholarship I received made the greatest impact. Thanks to the generosity of alumna and alumnus, 像你这样的, I am able to move forward with my dream of being a lawyer, while participating in a sport I love.
Today, I can honestly say I’m so happy that I chose 埃尔迈拉大学. I am excelling academically, making the dean’s list every term and being inducted into the Phi Beta Kappa Honor Society. I have grown as a wrestler, learning from my Coach and team. However, my greatest accomplishment thus far has been finding my voice. As an individual who once struggled with speaking up, I’m truly grateful for the strength 埃尔迈拉大学 has instilled in me.
Inspiring the leaders of tomorrow is central to the 埃尔迈拉大学 experience. I am thankful for all the opportunities Elmira has provided, and I look forward to my continued growth and success. Your gifts mean so much to students, like me, who rely on scholarships. Please make your contribution today by mailing a check, going online to www.埃尔迈拉.edu/give,或者打电话 (607) 735-1770.
无论如何,
凯特林·波特 ’25
"The most important thing is to ensure Elmura College continues to impact the lives of students – the same as it did for me."
–Barbara Corti Herrmann '62

Calling all 埃尔迈拉大学 Alumni… Want to leave a lasting legacy at your 埃尔迈拉大学? The Class of 2008 is here to guide you through simple steps to make a real impact. The Class has already gotten a jump on their 2028 Reunion Class Gift, funding the creation of a campus patio to be located between Perry and Tompkins Residence Halls, by utilizing the three easy steps below. These steps are sure to get your classmates on board and help create a lasting legacy that your Class will be proud to leave behind.
When asked why she supports 埃尔迈拉大学, Class Agent Megan Metro ’08, 解释了, “It will forever be my home away from home. All these years later I still get the ‘warm and fuzzies’ when I step on campus. EC is truly the place that set me on the path to becoming the person I am today. I know how transformative a liberal arts education can be and how without the help of Alumni, I would not have had the experiences I did. After being on the receiving end, it brings me such joy to pay it forward and help support current students. EC is built on traditions, one of which is a tradition of Alumni involvement and support. I’m truly so proud to get to be a part of that tradition.”
Together, your Class can make a lasting impact that will ensure a legacy for generations to come. For information on getting your Class involved or project ideas, contact the EC Advancement Office at (607) 735-1770 or advancement@埃尔迈拉.edu.
