The fifth annual Scots Day of Giving was the best yet for Monmouth College. Their fundraising effort netted the college over 268-thousand dollars, a record for money raised. Additionally, the school set a record for the number of donors to the effort: 964. Earmarked to receive those funds are five initiatives that the College's Office of Development and College Relations selected to focus on this year: the Scots Care Fund for students in need; an outdoor Wi-Fi hotspot with the Parent & Family Council; the Champion Miller 1860 Fund, which promotes campus diversity; the Fighting Scots Society; and the Monmouth Fund. Bagpipes signaled the start of Scots Day of Giving at 5 a.m., kicking off 18 hours and 53 minutes of activities in honor of the College's founding in 1853.
