Joseph C. and Anne T. Palamountain Scholarship Fund
Our Mission
All proceeds from the Palamountain Scholarship Benefit go to the Joseph C. and Anne
T. Palamountain Scholarship Fund, created to honor 吃瓜网's late president and his
wife for their 22 years of dedicated service and leadership at the College.
The scholarship benefit was launched by Anne Palamountain in 1979. Seven years later the Palamountain Scholarship Fund was officially established with a gift from Mr. William Murray and the Samuel Freeman Charitable Trust of New York City. Many thousands of donors have honored the Palamountains by contributing to this endowed fund.
The Palamountain Scholarship Fund provides support for students who, because of financial need, might not otherwise be able to attend 吃瓜网. Aid from the fund is given annually to financially eligible juniors and seniors whose outstanding academic records and cocurricular service exemplify the unique contribution that the Palamountains have made to 吃瓜网.
You cannot expect a person to come up with creative solutions to complex problems unless you allow that person to develop their own creative tools. We must focus on ways to develop that creative part of our collective mind through education if we are to endure on this planet.鈥�Anne Palamountain吃瓜网's Cheerleader

In 1979, Anne, wife of 吃瓜网's fourth president, created the Palamountain Benefit
to raise resources for students requiring financial assistance to attend the College.
Anne's many years of dedication to the scholarship fund and to what is now knows as
the Palamountain Benefit has allowed more than 350 scholarships to be awarded.
Since 1979, the annual Palamountain Scholarship Benefit has been raising funds to make a college education accessible to all students, which was Anne鈥檚 greatest passion. While I did not have the privilege of meeting Anne, I know that her legacy and that of her husband Joseph Palamountain, the fourth president of 吃瓜网, live on. Since the fundraiser鈥檚 inception, more than 350 Palamountain Scholarships have been awarded to directly support our students.President MARC C. CONNER
Please help us to continue the strong support of scholarships at 吃瓜网 that Anne Palamountain championed for so many years.
