Campaign Closes with a Bang

The five-year Campaign for Pomona College came to a close last summer with a bang—topping $206 million—and the gala party celebrating its phenomenal success came to a close the same way. This time, however, the bang was one of confetti cannons, closing an evening of festivities in a well-disguised Voelkel Gymnasium in the Rains Center. Nearly 400 guests took part in the event, which included a video stroll down the Campaign’s memory lane and remarks from several speakers, including Campaign Chair Frank Ulf ’53, who toasted the Campaign’s success with
Cecil Sagehen himself, as well as President Peter Stanley and Chairman of the Board of Trustees Stewart Smith ’68.
