The university has reached the $3 billion mark in its universitywide fundraising campaign. Campaign co-chairs Jan Rock Zubrow '77 and Stephen Ashley '62, MBA '64, announced the milestone Nov. 18 at "Cornell on the Charles," an event attended by hundreds of Boston-area alumni. The record-breaking amount has been raised by only a handful of other universities. Since launching the $4 billion campaign in 2006, Cornell has significantly increased its financial aid program, established new professorships, created funds to assist the graduate and professional schools, and raised support for new medical institutes and professorships at Weill Cornell Medical College.
