GOLD is a select volunteer group comprised of Hobart and William Smith alumni and alumnae from the last ten graduating classes who are dedicated to engaging young alumni and alumnae. GOLD's primary goal is to encourage more participation with the Colleges, both financially and socially, by serving as representatives of the young alumni and alumnae body. Higher participation in The Fund for Hobart and William Smith by young alumni and alumnae directly benefits both current and future students and helps to continue the tradition of excellence at Hobart and William Smith Colleges.
