Inaugural 1965 Main Hall Society<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Chancellor Pam Shockley-Zalabak hosted an inaugural dinner for the members of the 1965 Main Hall Society, a newly created society to honor UCCS\u2019 most generous lifetime donors Dec. 17.<\/p>\n

The 40 named inaugural members of the 1965 Main Hall Society have donated at least $500,000 to the university; additional donors at this level chose to remain anonymous.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs our golden anniversary comes to a close, we feel it is important to honor those whose financial support has been instrumental to our success and growth,\u201d Shockley-Zalabak said. \u201cWe truly would not be the same university without the investment of 1965 Main Hall Society donors who have endowed professorships, created scholarships, funded research, and named buildings.\u201d<\/p>\n

The society\u2019s name honors one of the campus\u2019s original buildings, within which a permanent 1965 Main Hall Society fixture will be engraved with the names of its member donors.<\/p>\n
