The “Our Window of Opportunity” capital campaign has been described by MC President Gerald Gibson as “the most ambitious and transforming campaign in the College’s history.” All constituents are encouraged to stretch their giving by making an annual gift in support of the Maryville Fund, as well as a commitment to an important project of the campaign, as listed above.

As we enter the last phase of the campaign, support to date for each facet of the campaign has been very encouraging, and for the gifts already made, the College thanks you. In return, as we continue to raise funds, we would like to provide a brief progress report on the two capitol improvement projects.

Clayton Center for the Arts: With 6 months remaining until construction is due to be completed, the project remains on budget and on time. The most recent photos can be viewed at claytonartscenter.com. Faculty and Staff are scheduled to move into the new facility in December and January 2010 with a March Grand Opening being planned.

Anderson Hall:All exterior work on Anderson Hall has been completed as part of the $2M Phase 1 project. Work included external issues, including tuck-pointing the brick, restoring the bell tower, adding a new slate roof, gutters, and new downspouts. Contractors also stabilized the foundation and footings originally poured just four years after the Civil War. Phase 2 will begin as funds are available and is projected to cost $4M. Phase 2 will focus primarily on the internal renovation of the building.
