Residential Life

Kurtz Fund

Wesley Morris

The Donald and Barbara Kurtz Fund, managed by the Office of Residential Life, supports campus events that encourage learning and discussion outside the classroom and bring faculty, staff and students together.  All Kurtz funded programs must directly involve at least one College House as an event sponsor.

In 2012-13, the Kurtz fund supported events included:

  • Helmreich House’s “Home Away from Home” dinner at their faculty advisor’s house
  • MacMillan House’s career night with Bowdoin alums working in the arts, co-sponsored by the Art History department, 
  • Ladd House’s dinner with Janisse Ray
  • Dinner with Six Strangers

Check back in the fall of 2013 for instructions regarding the Kurtz fund for your event!
