| With the momentum created by the Leading Lives of Consequence capital campaign, the historic fundraising results for 2024-2025 were absolutely phenomenal. The contributions of more than 10,000 alumni, parents and friends made this record-breaking year possible and helped ensure the university's reputation for excellence continues. I also want to express my immense gratitude to our hundreds of alumni volunteers – your time, talent and effort leading our chapters, participating in W&L programming on campus and beyond, facilitating job opportunities and internships for our students, supporting W&L sports teams in action, serving on reunion committees and as class agents and so much more also played an enormous role in fortifying and extending the excellence of Washington and Lee. As we close the books on last year's remarkable success and prepare to welcome students to campus for a new academic year, everyone in Hotchkiss Alumni House and around campus joins me in thanking you for all you do to support W&L! |

The Life of a Book
|
| Every book begins the same way: from a flash of inspiration. As it moves through the world of imagination, a team of creatives brings the final idea into existence. Once it takes shape, readers are allowed windows into other worlds that offer new perspectives – and leave an indelible mark on their lives. |
