Mission & Goals

Mission

We create the conditions for opportunity – human, financial & experiential – by garnering and stewarding the resources that advance William & Mary.

Goals

William & Mary’s strength as an institution depends greatly on access to resources that enable the university to provide a world-class liberal arts education, graduate programs that prepare students to succeed in a professional environment and a campus community where scholars can excel in the classroom and on the field. Your support can help ensure that we can continue to offer:

  • A strong William & Mary community where inquiry and excellence thrive.
  • Powerful faculty-student interaction.
  • A rich array of co-curricular activities.
  • An emphasis on collaboration and innovation in teaching and research across disciplines.
  • Meaningful opportunities to lead positive change. 

University Advancement’s overarching goals can help ensure William & Mary has strong financial footing well into the future.
