Dean's Fund for Student Life

The Dean's Fund for Student Life supports student innovation and implementation of some highly creative ideas.  This spirit is unquestionably one of the elements of the Chicago culture that distinguishes us as a College.

-Dean of the College, John Boyer

The Dean's Fund for Student Life is exists to support the innovation of students within the College. Funded by the donations of generations of alumni, the Fund has supported students and their ideas since its creation. 

Over the years, the Dean's Fund has sent students around the world to present in conferences and events from Iowa to Dubai. It has brought speakers like scholar and literary critic Henry Louis Gates Jr. to campus and brought softball leagues to some of the most underserved neighborhoods in Chicago.
