Dear Senior Class:

As commencement approaches, now is the perfect time to thank CNU for the countless opportunities it has provided us. Together we can show our appreciation by contributing to the senior class gift.

The Class of 2008 is seeking to raise $20,000 to present one of the most ambitious gifts in CNU history:

  • a three-tiered fountain to be installed in the Ferguson Center's Garden of the Arts.
  • an endowment on the garden (currently under construction), guaranteeing its care and maintenance for years to come.

With the support of every senior, we will reach our goal quickly. All it takes is each of us donating $35. That's easier than you might think. If we each save $2 a week between now and graduation, we will each save enough to contribute $35 to the gift. Plus, anyone who donates $50 or more can include a personal message in the In Honor/In Memory booklet published for the Class of 2008.

A little budgeting on each of our part will add up, helping us to meet our goal. It will also show our dedication to leaving a lasting mark of gratitude at CNU.

Please consider what you can contribute to the senior class gift, and good luck in your final courses. We’re almost there!

Sincerely yours,

Todd Shockley's signature
