Class Gift

About the Campaign

Why should I support the Class Gift Campaign?

The percentage of the class that contributes to the campaign is a direct indication of students’ impression of the overall quality of the faculty, services, and administration of the USF School of Law. The participation percentage is a bellwether to alumni, peer law schools, prospective students, and other influential groups as they evaluate the quality of the law school.

Why is participation so important?

If we achieve high participation, we can directly impact two important factors:

1. Perception To alumni, other law schools, prospective students, employers, and other constituencies, a high participation rate is indicative of satisfaction with the quality of the school. These are important constituencies, as their actions further influence the reputation and perceived quality of USF School of Law.
2. Alumni Participation The experience of current students is a strong indicator to alumni that USF is fulfilling its mission. Participation is an active testimonial that can leverage greater resources from alumni.

How can I contribute, given my debt?

Taking into account the high debt incurred by many students, the law school offers modest gift levels to make it possible for you to participate. Our goal is to have 100% participation!

What are the three options?

1. Gift Levels This option enables you to make a modest one time gift.
2. Spirit of 2013 This option enables you to boost our participation rate with an affordable, one-time payment of any size (minimum gift amount $5). Our #1 goal is participation. Every gift truly counts. You can support the campaign with a gift of $5, $10, or $15.
