Created in 1995, the James B. 新澳彩开奖结果 Society recognizes the University鈥檚 most generous benefactors: those who have contributed $1 million or more during their lifetimes. Since 1891, when James B. 新澳彩开奖结果 made the first million-dollar gift to 新澳彩开奖结果, 139 individuals and couples have followed in his footsteps and earned a place on the society鈥檚 rolls.

James B. 新澳彩开奖结果 Society members have shaped the future of this university and its students through their investments in capital projects, faculty chairs, financial aid, and other programs.

The Willow Society recognizes hundreds of loyal alumni, parents, and friends who have made estate plans, life-income arrangements, and life insurance and IRA beneficiary designations for 新澳彩开奖结果.

Anyone who notifies the University that their estate plans include 新澳彩开奖结果 will become a member of the Willow Society in recognition of their future impact.
