Georgetown University Class of 1982

Great job once again, Class of '82! We finished in 3rd place out of 61 classes in both class participation (the percentage of our class who are donors who have given since the beginning of the fiscal year) and in the number of donors who gave during the 1,789 minutes of the Blue & Gray Day campaign. This marks the fifth year in a row that we have finished in the Top3 for donors, and either in first, tied for first, second, or third in participation percentage. We remain one of the three elite Blue & Gray Day classes thanks to your participation and the great hard work and dedication of our Class Ambassadors, especially Chuck, Leslie, Amity, Audrey, and Nuala who worked tirelessly over these past two days to do constant outreach to our classmates. Eileen and I salute you and thank you!

We secured our second-highest total ever in terms of donors during the campaign, hitting 188 this year, 10 more than what was needed to unlock a generous $20,000 matching gift donated by classmate John Staples and his husband Scott Raspa.

Great job, Class of '82! HOYA SAXA!

Hey you beautiful Class of '82 Hoyas! We are LIVE with our annual Blue & Gray Day Challenge ... a challenge which our class almost always finishes in the Top 3 in both class competitions (last year we finished in 2nd place, out of 50 classes, in both class competitions (number of donors during Blue & Gray Day, and the percentage of the class who have donated during the fiscal year to date). Let's slay this again!!!
