The Science Fellows

Eckerd College has earned great distinction in the Natural Sciences. To continue this legacy and best prepare students for careers in a world characterized by rapid technological advances, we are expanding and enhancing our facilities. Through Many Experiences, One Spirit: The Campaign for Eckerd College, the College is building the Center for Molecular and Life Sciences, a new $30 million, state-of-the-art laboratory facility that will address current overcrowding issues, enhance interdisciplinary connections, foster student-faculty research, improve recruitment and retention of both faculty and students, and accommodate the most recent advances in science education.

The Science Fellows is a group of College leaders who are providing the financial support needed to continue the upward trajectory of Eckerd's Science programs. Through their support, these Trustees, alumni, parents, friends, faculty and staff are making a lasting impact on the College's future and tomorrow's science leaders.

To join this group of 200 generous donors who have made gifts and pledges in excess of $31 million, make a gift or pledge of at least $5,000 for the new Science facility, payable in increments or in a lump sum. Science Fellow donors also receive the benefits of the Suzie and Grover Wrenn '64 Science Fellow Challenge.
