Dear Alums, 1301 <strong>Columbia</strong> <strong>College</strong> Drive <strong>Columbia</strong>, SC 29203 You Have Been Labeled! Surcie is one of those <strong>Columbia</strong> <strong>College</strong> words that you will never forget! In December, alumnae received return address labels as a surcie from the office of advancement. Many of you responded to that mailing and have let us know that you are enjoying your labels. You fondly remember your college days and genuinely appreciate the experiences you had as a student. Some of you characterize your college experience as transformational while others describe it as the best years of their lives. Lifelong friendships were formed. Professors nurtured you. Activities entertained you. Academics challenged you. No matter what your “label” is, <strong>Columbia</strong> <strong>College</strong> has most likely had a tremendous impact on you personally and professionally and we ask that you consider a gift to the Loyalty Fund to honor those people who truly made a difference in your life. Proudly use your labels so that others will “label” you or see your connection as a <strong>Columbia</strong> <strong>College</strong> woman!
