The Office of Institutional Advancement is excited to share significant fundraising progress for the fourth phase of renovations in Hoyt Science Center. Westminster College broke ground in 2017 for the multimillion dollar four-phase renovation and expansion project of Hoyt. With generous support, three phases have been funded and achieved, and one final phase (4 Hoyt) is left to complete in our strategic renovation plan of the facility housing STEM classes, labs, and faculty offices. Alumni donors Will ’53 and Carol Jean Young ’62 Maurer offered a generous $1 million lead challenge gift to encourage additional contributions from the alumni community to help us complete this phase of updates 4 Hoyt. Thanks to the enthusiastic support of the alumni community, the College is more than halfway to meeting the match for this transformative project.
