2012 Baruch College Fund Annual Report
a letter FROM ThE Baruch College Fund President We have made significant progress on the Baruch Means Business Campaign and expect to exceed its $150 million goal. As President of the Baruch College Fund (BCF), I join with all of my colleagues in thanking you for your support of Baruch College. Without you, Baruch s extraordinary success would not be possible. This success can best be measured by the status of our students and alumni. It is part of our mission to offer a world class education to all. The Educational Trust did a study of all the four year colleges in the country and concluded that only five colleges did right by economically disadvantaged students. Of those five schools, Baruch had the highest graduation rates, the highest percentage of Pell Grant eligible students, and was deemed the most racially diverse. What happens on our campus is not replicated elsewhere: You truly make something unique happen for which we can all be proud. This has been an extraordinary year for the BCF. In spite of the continuing economic turmoil and flat market performance, we have made significant progress on the Baruch Means Business Campaign and expect to exceed its $150 million goal. Among the highlights is the naming of the Sandra Kahn Wasserman Jewish Studies Center, an extraordinary $7 million endowment gift by Mildred Weissman to further the stature of the Weissman School of Arts and Sciences, additional support from the Petrie Foundation for the Student Emergency Fund in response to Hurricane Sandy, and many new scholarships. We have set the stage for future growth with a record setting donor participation, led in part by a challenge grant from Allen Aaronson, recordsetting online giving, and continued growth in the17 Lex Society. The importance of planned gifts bequests, annuities, and trusts remain critical as they exceeded $1 million for the third time in the past five years. As always, unrestricted giving remains the lifeblood of the college since such gifts can be used where they are most useful as determined by the administration, such as for scholarships, faculty support, etc. We are very grateful to those who provide unrestricted funds by supporting The Bernard Baruch Dinner, the annual fund and direct support. As you read this on the threshold of completing a $150 million campaign, we look forward to celebrating this success in next year s report. With sincere thanks for your ongoing support, Joel J. Cohen 59 President, The Baruch College Fund
