Share Clarkson and
Change a Life
For generations, alumni and friends have shared their enthusiasm
for Clarkson and its special brand of education. Now it is
possible to share something more, the University itself. Our
Direct Scholarship Program has opened a new avenue for talented
students who want to attend Clarkson. And it enables alumni
to give back to Clarkson while creating a powerful personal
legacy of learning and opportunity. Your sponsorship of a
scholarship will allow a student to attend Clarkson.

received a top-notch education at Clarkson,"
says Bob. "I'm pleased
that I can help." |
It Started with a Personal Story
Bob Fanch '69, chairman of Conversent Communications and pioneer
in broadband services, has a special appreciation for his
alma mater. When his brother, Richard '74, wanted to enroll
at Clarkson, the family found itself in financial need. Happily,
the school was able to provide the necessary aid. Bob never
forgot that. Recently he enabled 28 promising students to
enroll at his alma mater by meeting their financial need with
a personal scholarship each year for four years. Through this
generous example, Bob launched what has now become the Share
Clarkson Direct Scholarship Program.

Exactly how does the Share Clarkson
Direct Scholarship work?
Clarkson's dream of having a campus on the hill is a reality.
It's time to address the University's next big challenge:
making Clarkson affordable for every deserving applicant.
Through Share Clarkson you can
help promising students benefit while Clarkson continues to
enhance its reputation as one of the finest small technological
institutions in America.
"I could never have attended Clarkson
without a scholarship. Now I can repay a moral debt by helping
another young student benefit from the University's unique
blend of education in both technical and interpersonal skills."
- Steve Tritman '68
It has always been Clarkson's mission to provide an opportunity
to promising students who might otherwise be unable to receive
a quality technological education. For generations, the financial
assistance of Clarkson alumni and friends has helped students
earn their degree. Now this tradition has taken on new life
through this new direct scholarship program.
