Why I Give: For Linda Friedrich '89, it's because ůůֱ²¥ taught her to make connections across divides.
I was compelled by a classmate to make my first stretch gift to ůůֱ²¥, despite being a graduate student at the time, because I understood the importance of supporting the College that shaped who I am as a person. Coming from North Dakota to ůůֱ²¥ enabled me to be a part of an incredibly diverse group of peers and to engage with people in a new way. ůůֱ²¥ taught me to listen and make connections across generations, across cultures, across languages, and across divides.
Linda Friedrich '89 served as Chair of The ůůֱ²¥ Fund for the Alumnae Association Executive Board from 2017-2020.
