First Steps to Preserve Wells’ Legacy
We are fund-raising to support crucial next steps towards our goal of protecting and preserving the Wells College legacy, as outlined in our attorney’s 5/28 letter to the Board of Trustees and copied to the NYS Office of the Attorney General:
Immediate: challenge & block the designation of Manhattanville U as the Wells legacy partners.
Mid-range: keep Wells’ institutional funds in and near Aurora, so the endowment and designated funds can best support the original, place-specific goals of the donors.
Long range: preserve part of the campus (using some of the funds above) for educational and non-profit orgs housing for Wells’ legacy, Aurora’s history, and the WCA or its successor.
