Full Circle is the college's society of alumni and friends. Members pay yearly dues, volunteer at events and sit on the scholarship committee; every dollar of dues goes to need-based scholarships, matched by the challenge pool while it lasts.
It is run by volunteer officers with the Alumni Relations and Development offices: alumni bring the network, Development brings the fund, and the college brings the students.
Why join
- Your dues become a scholarship the same year.
- Members' events: studio tours, the spring gala, the scholarship recipients' showcase.
- A seat on the scholarship committee if you volunteer.
- Your name in the Full Circle roll at the grad show.
