Alex Paganelli was an incredible student and athlete in the Hamilton College community. He was a prominent member of the Men’s Lacrosse Team and a chemistry major intending to attend medical school. In the fall of 2010, Alex studied abroad in Turks and Caicos, conducting field research on marine life. He was an important member of the 2012 class as a teammate, friend, and student. His absence will always leave a noticeable hole, especially for our seniors. The senior gift, a research endowment, is a way for Alex to continue to live in our hearts and minds on the Hill. With this endowment, Alex will continue to spread the warmth and wealth as he did while here at Hamilton, helping students of similar interests achieve parallel success and recognition. In order to remember Alex and to promote continuing success among Hamilton’s current and future students, the Senior Gift Committee is hoping to make the following participation goals in order to establish this commemorating endowment. November 5, 2011 25%
December 10, 2011 50%
March 11, 2012 75%
May 6, 2012 90%
Remember that no amount is too small! As Alex’s classmates, we owe it to him to do our very best to reach over 98% participation! Reaching 98%, ideally 100%, would put us ahead of the class of 2011 who only reached only 93%, as well as the Hamilton record of 97.6%, set by the class of 2007. Help show your support to Hamilton as well as to our unforgettable classmate, Alex Paganelli!
