<strong>Lehman</strong> Today Creates <strong>Lehman</strong> Tomorrow<br />
Our college, its campus, programs, faculty, students—in essence, its future,<br />
is a guaranteed success as long we help keep the vision alive.<br />
When <strong>Lehman</strong> was established in 1968, CUNY was a tuition-free institution, but since 1976, with the establishment of tuition requirements, the<br />
cost of attending <strong>Lehman</strong> has consistently risen. Today, New York State funding contributes only about thirty percent of the <strong>College</strong>’s annual<br />
operating budget. Tuition, external grants for research and sponsored programs, and gifts from alumni and friends make up the difference.<br />
These gifts expand <strong>Lehman</strong>’s academic programs, establish endowed chairs and professorships, and upgrade facilities, instrumentation, and<br />
equipment––which all increase the value of a <strong>Lehman</strong> education as well as a <strong>Lehman</strong> degree. Most important, these private dollars make<br />
scholarship support available for many students who otherwise could not afford to attend <strong>Lehman</strong>. Please consider making a gift to help<br />
<strong>Lehman</strong> <strong>College</strong> fulfill its mission and build both its future and that of its students. Contact Fredrick Gilbert, acting executive director,<br />
<strong>Lehman</strong> <strong>College</strong> Foundation, 318 Shuster Hall, 250 Bedford Park Blvd. West, Bronx NY 10468 / 718-960-8975.
