A Message of Gratitude From President Phil Stone

March 10, 2016
President StoneDear Alumnae and Friends,
Today is about a legacy and a vision that we are inspired to perpetuate! You have done it again! A birthday gift of gratitude for our founder never before done in this manner, one that is so well deserved!
You have signaled to the world that for the Sweet Briar community, nothing is impossible. In just 8 days, you raised over $1 million for our Next is NOW special initiative. This happened because of your commitment to Sweet Briar College.
What a special way to honor our founder, Indiana Fletcher Williams, on her birthday. By demonstrating your devotion to Sweet Briar College, you have set the stage for the next 115 years.
Thank you for all you do. Thank you especially for honoring Indiana and Sweet Briar College in this special way. Thank you — in perpetuity.
Very truly yours,
Phil Stone
