Collections Strengths

The College continues to receive donations that support teaching, learning, and research at the College. The Seymour Adelman Fund is an endowment that allows us to purchase work that grows the collection in support of our departmental priorities. Currently, these priorities are to support teaching and to diversify the representation of artists, authors, and subjects in the collection.
