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 2011-12, 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 Q&A with Pulitzer Prize winner Boston Globe journalist Wesley Morris
  • Dinner with Six Strangers
