College-wide Initiatives

As Baruch College aspires to raise its national stature, we in Baruch's Strategic Partnerships office are working hard with alumni, friends and partners to build a strong base of support. Since one of the criteria used to calculate ranking is the percentage of alumni directly contributing to the College, a gift to the College will have a college-wide impact. To have the greatest impact on Baruch College, the following initiatives are ways in which you and your organization may invest:

  • Giving and Naming Opportunities
  • Annual Fund
  • Professorships and Chairs
