This Thursday, the annual Dean’s Scholarship Reception will be held in the Roone Arledge Auditorium in Lerner. Students with named scholarships are invited to go and meet the donor who named their scholarship. According to the Columbia website, students are matched with donors based on “intellectual pursuits, extracurricular achievements, hometowns and plans for the future, among other factors,” and donors are super pumped to hang out. It’s a wonderful opportunity to thank the person helping you out through college.
Plus, with any hope they’ll tell you some enlightening stories from their glory days (ctrl+f “panty“).
