Who Are the Friends?
The Friends of Ithaca College are local businesspeople, community members, and Ithaca College faculty, staff, and alumni who work together to strengthen the ties between the College and the local community. For more than 50 years, the Friends have supported scholarships for students from our region as well as other College priorities. Through their membership fees, the Friends have helped more than 350 students from central New York receive an IC education.
On this site you can learn about the benefits of being a Friend and how to become a Friend, view a list of Friends members, see recent news, and read testimonials from Friends scholarship recipients.
