honor roll
Centennial Challenges Alan Berkshire, B.S.’82 and Cynthia Reavis Berkshire, A.B.’83 are longtime supporters of Taubman College. In 1997, while still in their 30s, they began building the Alan and Cynthia Reavis Berkshire Endowed Scholarship Fund. In three years, they were able to complete their pledge and the first Berkshire Scholar was named in 2001. Subsequently, Alan and Cynthia began to explore other ways to provide opportunities for Taubman College students. As students, they had benefited from international travel experiences and recognized the value of study travel in an increasingly global society. In September 2006, in honor of the college’s 100th birthday, they established the Centennial Travel Fund with a gift of $10,000. While the Berkshires were excited about creating more resources for travel, they also wanted to leverage their gift to encourage more alumni/ae to support the college.
They issued a challenge, offering to match new or increased gifts directed to graduate scholarships and to the newly established Centennial Travel Fund. They committed $100,000 with any balance going to the Centennial Travel Fund. During the past year an astonishing 150 TCAUP students had an opportunity to engage in study overseas. These opportunities included spring studio offerings to Guatemala, Iceland, Switzerland, Argentina, Ghana, Japan and Beijing but also shorter trips to Guatemala and Venice. Many more were able to augment their studies with visits to destinations within the United States including Las Vegas, Chicago, and Sault Ste. Marie. The Centennial Travel Fund will support study travel, both domestic and international, undertaken by students in any of the programs.
